Review: "This wonderfully ripe wine has a rich palate, a complex nose and lots of layers, providing depth and a nice dense color. This cabernet is softly complex, rich in cassis, cherry, spice, chocolate and oak flavors anchored with warm, earthy tannins - balancing nicely with sweet vanilla and chocolate toasted oak. This is the maestro of wines: a rich palate, a complex nose with lots of layers, great depth and a deep and rich color.100% Cabernet Sauvignon"

My Review: Lots of blackcherry, and cherry notes on the smell along with a hint of smoke. The taste was surely a smokey one, but not too overpowering, I can hang with it. The taste of cherry however was crazy bursts. It was a very bold wine that I could definitely learn to appreciate in the next couple of months with a great beef or red meat along side of it. The finish was very woody in my opinion, nothing overwhelming though, an all around great red wine in my opinion.
On this occasion I tasted this wine on its own without food
