"Darker and more brooding with the essence of cassis. Tight and coiled as we would hope at this “baby” stage. Great expansion of fruit on the attack shows its potential. Sweet and substantial tannins build early and help define this young cabernet sauvignon. An absolutely refined and classic Desafio. We can’t wait to watch this wine grow." Matt Dees, Winemaker
