Tasting note

California wine lovers have been in for some real treats of late - thanks to a string of stellar vintages, 2013 included. This Cabernet from Edge offers impressive notes of cassis, plum, smoke and tobacco on the nose, but on the palate is where it really shines. Juicy and complex with big bold fruit that fits neatly along with the smoky-tobacco tones. Touches of clove and spice appear on the long finish. A nice pairing with steak.

91+ Points Robert Parker, October 2014. It exhibits a dense ruby/purple colour, lots of fruit, and a round, seductive style with good ripeness and heady finish. Drink it over the next 6-8 years.
