James Suckling 90
Aromas of dark berries, plums, graphite and dried herbs with hints of cocoa and moist earth. Full-bodied and smooth, offering supple tannins and a layered mix of black fruit and spices. Polished and balanced with a savory-edged finish.

Aromatically generous and full of flavor, this powerful and densely detailed Cabernet celebrates opulent while savory dark chocolate, tobacco and dark fruits, with a surprising, refreshing lift. Persistent and palate cleansing.
