Tasting notes
Deep ruby-red. Black currant, cherry, pipe tobacco and woodsmoke on the highly fragrant nose. Taut and energetic on the palate, offering concentrated dark berry and bitter cherry flavors and subtle candied licorice and black pepper notes that build steadily in the glass. Becomes sweeter with air and finishes on a subtle oak spice note, with gentle tannic grip and very good persistence.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon has a medium to deep ruby color with spicy wild blackberries, blackcurrants, kirsch, pepper and cedar on the nose plus touches of tobacco, dried herbs, potpourri and red fruit sparks. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is classically styled with restrained red and black fruits and loads of spices. It has a firm, fine-grained frame and seamless freshness on the long, nuanced finish.
