Approachable and stately. Aromas of toast, bacon and reduced berries get it going in the right direction, while blueberry and cassis flavors control the palate. This is a ripped yet stylish wine with texture and chewy, integrated tannins. Congratulations to MontGras and chief consultant Paul Hobbs for making a serious Cabernet (with 2% Malbec) that most folks can actually afford.
