description: This is a very distinctive, even eccentric, Cab that must reflect its single-vineyard terroir.  The usual black-currant and blackberry notes are there, but the aroma is sharply dominated by an herbal streak, somewhat stalky or green, as if some of the grapes didn't ripen.  Tastes a little sharp.  Purists might want to age it for 3-5 years to see if it softens up.
variety: Cabernet Blend
designation: Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve
