2017 Smith & Hook Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles
Tasting Notes
Aromas of classic red plum and dark berries make up the base of dense ripe fruit in this warm-climate Cabernet Sauvignon with added hints of graphite and cocoa. Flavors of black cherry, blackberry and dark chocolate wrap around mounds of creamy tannins that lead into a smooth and succulent candied-pecan finish.
