There are 415 cases of the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon, which is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 28 months in French oak. Made by the team of Philippe Melka, this deep purple-hued beauty boasts a great nose of crème de cassis and blackberry fruits as well as classic Cabernet graphite, spice, tobacco, and a kiss of cedar. Concentrated, balanced, and just beautifully done, it's a 2017 that's well worth seeking out.

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is a very beautiful wine. Inky, unctuous, this opulent Cabernet packs a serious punch. Blackberry jam, crème de cassis, chocolate, new leather and sweet French oak build as this exotic, sumptuous Cabernet shows off its flamboyant personality.

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep garnet-purple color and delivers impactful scents of crème de cassis, baked plums and boysenberry preserves with suggestions of spice cake, Christmas pudding, potpourri and incense. Full-bodied, the palate is pleasantly savory with a nice chewiness to the texture and plenty of freshness to support, finishing long and meaty. 415 cases were made.
