Ruby black color. Elegant aromas and flavors of chocolate-plum pudding, olives, tobacco, aniseed, and turmeric with a round, crisp, dry medium-to-full body and a complex, long finish revealing nuances of coconut with moderate oak flavor. A spicy, balanced and elegant Cabernet Sauvignon that has its best days ahead of it; serve with dry-aged steaks.
