| Notes: Quality cabernet, nicely balanced with lots more fruit than most cabernets. Reminiscent of rasins, cherries, and lighter red fruit such as strawberries. Only hints of pepper and spicier flavors throughout and at the finish. | |

| Notes: Extremely sophisticated and well-balanced. Big ruby red color with nice blend of fruit, smoke, and tobacco. Absolutely brilliant wine to be remembered. | |
