Vine Cliff Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville 2012 750 ml

The aroma is lifted with blackberry jam, cherry, and brooding black fruits. Toast, cedar, roasted nuts and hints of molasses, add dimension. The palate has sweet blackberry fruit at entry with hints of raspberry, and lavender. Mocha chocolate and vanilla add complexity to the fleshy black fruits. The mouth feel is rich and full bodied yet is balanced with acidity and youthful polished tannins on the finish.
