A Washington state Cabernet that is nearly opaque with a deep ruby color and thick legs (14.8% ABV).  The nose has rich aromas of vanilla bean, ripe black plum, blackberry, black cherry, green pepper and boysenberry.  The palate is dry with medium (+) tannins and medium acidity.  Medium to full bodied, I get flavors of dark fruit, lots of oak influence and that green pepper note.  I lose the vanilla somewhat but gain charred wood instead.  The finish is a dry affair and medium in length.  This wine drinks nicely now- if you like them a bit dry and tannic.  Cellaring potential till 2028, I would serve this with hearty red meat dishes, rich pasta and stews.  90 points and for $40 it gets 4 stars.  Salut….
