Very Dark Red Cabernet Sauvignon is inky, smooth, and seductive—a deeply colored and intensely aromatic example of the varietal. Deep and velvety, this wine unveils primal dark fruit flavors of ripe blackberry and plum, which unfold into layers of chocolate, vanilla, tarragon, and a luscious finish of toasted oak. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Aptos; color: black; mso-color-index: 1; mso-font-kerning: 12.0pt; language: en-US; mso-style-textfill-type: solid; mso-style-textfill-fill-themecolor: text1; mso-style-textfill-fill-color: black; mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha: 100.0%;\"\u003eThe wine is rich and full-bodied with integrated tannins that give it a soft but firm structure and lingering sweet oak flavors on the smooth finish.
