Dark, royal purple, with aromas of blackberries, black cherries, hints of toasted oak, nutmeg, fresh herbs, and green foliage. Medium to full-bodied, nice concentration, with healthy, juicy black, purple and blue fruit upfront, hints of graphite and licorice, notes of spices, basil, and tobacco, medium-plus acidity, with mouth-coating tannins rising towards a long and mouth-filling finish. A quality, well-made wine from good grapes.

A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.
