EDITORS CHOICE
This wine is a feast for lovers of the rare cherry-eucalyptus combination of aromas in Cabernet. Flavors of black cherry, plum skin, fresh-crushed mint leaf and graphite round out a balanced palate. This is decadent stuff with all the texture and richness that drinkers expect from elite Cabernet intended for cellaring. Drink 2028-2045.
