This is one of the better Sonoma Cabs I have had. Purple in color with some ruby hues, opaque and bright. The nose is elegant but still powerful with cassis, black cherries, baking spices and slight fresh tobacco notes. Great texture. Medium tannins. Nice acidity. On the palate, this is young but already showing nice complexity. Layers of black cherries and cassis with a touch of earthiness and char. Long finish. This is delicious on its own and will work well with foods. It would works nicely with Eggplant Parmesan. Drink over the next ten to fifteen years.
