title: Caroline Bay 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon (Hawke's Bay)
description: The nose is an interesting blend of cocoa, dill, cassis and lemon. Flavors pretty much follow suit, sneaking in some tobacco and cedar shadings before turning lean and lemony. The finish shows off a whack of dry, cedary French oak. Hard to know where this will be in five years—might dry out, might get interestingly complex.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
