Deep purple/ruby with medium viscosity (13.8% ABV). The nose has intense aromas of mint, blackberry, black plum, anise, baking spice and cocoa. The palate is dry with medium acidity and medium tannins. The fruit is very ripe so the flavors of this medium bodied wine are almost sweet but I doubt there is any RS. Blackberry, cassis, black plum, mint and dark chocolate are cloaked in very supple and smooth tannins that carry this wine to a long finish. I like it- 92 points worth. This $40 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Oak Knoll region of Napa Valley. It is delicious and gets 5 stars from me. I’m pairing it with rack of Lamb. Drink till 2030. Salut….
