Here’s what the Beverage Testing Institute had to say about today’s wine…
“Ruby color. Aromas of olive, dried berries, forest floor, and honeycomb with a satiny, bright, dryish medium body and a graceful, intricate, medium-long cassis, nuts, and cocoa finish with well-integrated, fine tannins. A rich, earthy, and layered cabernet with great table appeal.” - Score: 92 points - Beverage Testing Institute, Aug-17-2015
