Deep red in color! Really deep! Deep like this..nevermind. Notes of bitter chocolate with vanilla and a light sweet or burnt sugar note. This Cab is a blend of 93% Cabernet, 3% Merlot, 2% Cab Franc and 2% Malbec. Wine sees 20 months in new french oak. Pretty HUGE on the palate in that you know you are tasting a big mutha fucka! Not big in that it is loaded with tannins and acidity, big in that it has flavor and you just want to keep shoving your dork in the glass to see what goes on next. Great spices on the palate with some firm tannins. This is an amazing wine for the price.
I always find it funny that new wine makers will charge 2 to 3 times more for their wines when they have only been making wine for a few years. Here we have someone who has been doing it for over 25 years and yet for some reason he can keep his prices low and still make great wine. Makes you question what you are paying for in other wines huh?!
