Bouquet:
Aromas of ripe black cherries and tart marionberries combined with earthy notes of mocha, roasted coffee beans, and bay leaves.
Palate:
While this Cab is all about fruit flavors of black cherries and black raspberries, it’s nicely balanced by natural acidity. With a slightly gritty texture and hints of mocha brought out by food, this wine is a real versatile crowd pleaser!
