Tasting Notes
The wine has deep purple/red hues with aromas of black-raspberry cobbler & roasted espresso beans with a hint of minerality, reminiscent to rose petals and jasmine tea. Full flavors of dark berry fruits fill the palate followed by a touch of bitter-sweet chocolate. Fleshy and balanced, this wine has a wonderful concentration of flavor and a long, silky finish.

Tasting Notes
The 2005 Cimarossa Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep ruby red color with a dark berry core. Perfumed scents of raspberry, black currant and cinnamon spice. Long and full flavors of blackberry and a mineral component on the palate with smooth and silky tannins. An elegant and powerful expression of Howell Mountain.
