Notes of ripe dark fruit with toasted spices, walnuts, dark chocolate and graphite. Full and dense with a bed of ripe, plush tannins. Firm and a little chewy with a deep dark-fruited backbone and a polished, chalky, crushed stone finish. Drink or hold.

The Wine Independent92 pts

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Benchlands is composed of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it jumps with bold scents of black cherries, mulberries, and cassis, followed by hints of wild thyme, fragrant earth, and cedar. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is soft and juicy, with bags of expressive black fruits and a spicy kick to the finish.
