The V. Vineyards 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon is a deep dark cranberry with hints of velvety red and purple. On the nose is an explosion of fruit like strawberries, cassis with touches of spices like basil, tarragon, tomato sauce lingering on vanilla, cherry and pumpkin bread. On the palate, this wine has a soft velvety entrance evolving on tannins with soft dense fruit like black cherries, boysenberries lingering on plums, lavender and lilac.
Enjoy.
