The palate is full-bodied with finely integrated tannins, bright acidity and lingering notes of cherries, pine, tomatoes and spices. Drink or hold."  Winemaker Notes:  "This is an elegant wine with earthy aromas of cassis, anise, chocolate and plum. In the glass there are bright flavors of cherry, cassis, chocolate and plum. The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is a structured wine with firm tannins and a chewy finish that evolves with each sip."  Alcohol:  14.0% *Price and availability in store may vary.
