One of a dozen labels from the Precision Wine Co., Bound gets the over-the-top packaging treatment from owner Trevor Sheehan. Oddly enough, the over-weighted bottle fits the style of this Cabernet which is definitely over-sized. Aged in small oak for 10 months, the wine exudes ripe jammy fruit along with cassis and herbal notes in the aroma. Big, ripe flavors of jam and blackberry are rounded by soft tannins. If you like the big, luscious style of Cabernet, then this version is reasonably priced and it is often discounted.
