description: I like this wine for the way it mimics Napa cult Cab, yet carves out a distinct identity. Like Napa, it's dry, soft and ripely opulent, with rich blackberry, cassis, cherry, cocoa and oak flavors, housed in sweet, finely ground tannins. Yet there's an earthy, tobacco and sassafras quality that suggests real terroir. Showing its best now.
