"Plum, black currant, licorice, incense and graphite result in a complex, open-knit, stylish set of aromatics. In the mouth, a Margaux-like elegance and feminine style are found in this pretty yet soft, medium-bodied Cabernet. The acids, tannins, alcohol and wood components are all nicely integrated in this enjoyable, complex effort."
