description: Massive and tannic, and dry to the point of astringency, all this Cab needs is a decade or so to come around. The tannins are bigtime, locking the wine down, but there's a solid core of blackberry and cassis fruit. Once the wine has aged, the sweet fruit will emerge. Don't even think about it until 2010.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: S.L.V.
