Black cherry fruit is accented with flavors of coffee grounds and dark chocolate. The fruit is clean and brambly, and the wine overdelivers for the price.

Dark, toasty, and showing some bricking in the rim, this is ready to drink right now. If you like the more mature, softer tannins of well-aged Cabernet, this leads you there. The vineyard, in the heart of the Rattlesnake Hills AVA, offers Cabernet fruit with excellent varietal character, including pepper and dried herbs.

This is all Cabernet, aged in American oak, and it delivers dark and tannic flavors suggesting purple plum and black cherry. Tannins are rugged and the oak seems to have a fairly high level of toast, which translates into flavors of coffee grounds and ash.

Forward and softly fruity in the nose, it blends into a pleasant melange of roses, cherries and chocolate. Flavors mingle leaf and flower, fruit and root, with modest tannins and a good balance.
