2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva

 Slightly savory and smokey nose of leather, cedar, vanilla, and a touch of mint. On the palate are beautifully soft yet structured tannins with notes of plum and cocoa powder that lead into a long, soft finish.

Pairings: Beef wellington, duck paté, butternut squash soup and seedy bread, impressing old friends, celebrating closing the deal, lamenting losing the deal

Music: In a Sentimental Mood - Duke Ellington and John Coltrane
