The deep garnet-purple colored 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has a rock-star nose of chocolate-covered cherries, crème de cassis, blackberry pie and baking spices with touches of roses, chargrill, pencil lead and cigar box plus a waft of tapenade. Very firm—built like a brick house—full and muscular with ripe, grainy tannins and great freshness, it finishes long and earthy.
