This medium-weight Cabernet displays plum, slightly candied cherry and a little smoke on the nose and palate. Well-balanced with good persistence, this is an easy, pleasing glass of red that’s ready to drink now.

Brine, pine and camphor on the nose obscures what black fruit lies beneath. Odd chestnut, acorn and shoe polish notes on the thin palate lead into a salty, corned beef-meets-menthol finish.

This light offering shows berry-cherry fruit and an herb note on the nose. The palate is even and dry with bing-cherry flavors, but an evident greenness keeps the wine from blossoming fully. Finishes dry, with a mildly astringent and slightly woody note.

A jammy and meaty nose with dark currant, plum, and leather accents opens this straight-ahead, pleasing wine. Dark berry flavors fill the mouth and the tart-sweet fruit works well with the modest wood. Displays judicious use of the differing attributes of the blended grapes and oak.
