title: Van Ruiten 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon (Lodi)
description: This abundantly rich wine seems to melt in the mouth like fine dark chocolate. Aromas emphasize fully ripe plums, black cherries and a whiff of spicy oak. Then chocolaty flavors expand quickly on the tongue as they are carried by copious soft tannins. While big in flavor it's modest in body and alcohol.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
