Nice aubergine hue, ash and subdued fruit on opening green herbaceous notes, dark berries.
Palate--Tart first impression with lip smacking tannins, wood, coarse spices, blackberry with a quick finish and an awkward mouth feel.
This is a Columbia Valley Cabernet which generally have a fairly distinctive "terroir" but this one is just meah. Maybe there is hope after it breaths. After some air time, it is angular, clunky and unpleasant. Pass on this one...
