title: Etude 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)
description: Rich, ripe blackberry, cherry, mocha, anise and cedar flavors mark this 100% Cabernet. The tannins are evident in a puckery astringency, but it's not too hard to drink it now with tannin-busting foods, like steak. Shows a classy, Napa-esque flashiness, although it doesn't seem to be an ager.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
