Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve delivers loads of subtle, savory nuances of bouquet garni, smoked meats, dried wild mushrooms and yeast extract over a core of warm cassis and prunes plus a waft of Ceylon tea. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a firm line of rugged tannins and just enough freshness supporting the muscular, savory flavors, finishing with a dried herbs lift.
