Dry, let it stand in the glass or decant. dark fruits, cherry oak, plum, currant, and a hint of chocolate. Full, rich bodied, but well balanced. The kind of complex flavors you'd expect to pay hundreds for.

This is a big wine, full bodied with blackberry, plum, and dark cherry. I would recommend decanting this wine (or letting it aerate for some time before drinking) as the alcohol can overpower the subtle undertones of chocolate and coffee. I would actually recommend drinking this wine alone rather than pairing it with a meal. For the price, this is an excellent cabernet.
