There’s 11% Malbec in this wine which gives it a purplish hue, but the flavors are all Cab. Cassis, raspberry and chocolate meld in the mouth, with dill and tobacco influencing the mixed-berry nose. A supple mouthfeel and solid tannins back it up, although the finish is a bit short. Imported by Vineyard Brands.——M.D.(3/1/2006)—— 86
