"The 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz The Signature is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Shiraz that spent 20 months in a combination of French and American hogsheads as well as smaller barrels. Its deep, sweet perfume of blackberries, camphor, damp earth, vanilla, licorice, and pepper is followed by a powerful, flavorful, intense wine revealing high tannins as well as impressive concentration. This superb Cabernet should easily age for 12-15 years."

"Firm, with grippy tannins around a core of cedary berry, licorice and herb flavors, which linger nicely. Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Best from 2007 through 2012. 1,160 cases imported. (HS)"
