Deep ruby in colour with a medium+ intense nose.

Well aged Cab for under $25

Positives: This wine features cedar, blackcurrants, anise, iodine, pencil shavings, dark cherry, sage, arugula and leather. Full body with medium tannins, good acidity and a long length.

Negatives: None

Drink now or in the next 2 years on its own or pair it with grilled T-bone steak.
