"When given time in the glass or decanter to open, this Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot blend offers gentle, dusty aromas of dark chocolate, raspberry cordial, black olive and baking spices. There,s a lovely lift of acidity on the linear palate, the tart red fruit, savory spice and herb notes brocaded with sappy, cat,s tongue tannins. ‡C.P. "
