This Cabernet has deep red colour with pink rim changing slightly to amber. Red fruit and raisins on the nose with ample oak and classic pencil shavings . Quite a heavy red on the palate, moderately tannic with a nice dryness. A continuation of the red fruit (and cherries) and good oaking. Shortish yet elegant tail. Would be a good eveyday sipper if it wasn't for the price.
