An opening salvo of coffee, tobacco and pure berry fruit give this Cabernet a fine lift-off. The palate exhibits freshness and full-bodied power, while the flavors run toward deep black fruits, tobacco, herbs, vanilla and cocoa. Long and rich as well on the finish. Best to set this aside for at least four years before revisiting, but drinkable now with decanting.
