this rich, fruity cabernet comes from one of the higher mountain regions in dry creek valley. it's enormously concentrated in blackberry, black currant and oak flavors, with the briary, peppery note so often found in dry creek reds. fairly tannic, it leaves a trail of astringency after you swallow. good, if a little rustic. give it three or four years to come around.
