Review:

Suggestions of blackberries, currants, dark-chocolate, and earth rise from a glass. Blackberry and currant flavors dominate the palate with accents of anise and vanilla rounding out the profile. A softer, lighter Cab with mellow tannins, it’s for fans of subtle and smooth over big and bold.

Rating: 87

Character: dark fruit, lighter-bodied, mellow tannins
