For those who like their Cabernet in a bold, fruit forward style with more spice and vanilla than herb tones, this wine is a winner and a great price. Blackberry, currants, vanilla, moderate oak toast and fall spice aromas and flavors in a plush package with enough grip to keep things together through a medium long finish suggest pairing with a nice grilled porterhouse steak.
