Predominant aromas of ripe dark cherries &amp; spicy French oak. Medium body, slightly high on acidity. Soft &amp; smooth on the palate, with mellow tannin. Seamless transition, culminating in a spicy, soft &amp; lingering medium length finish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><b>Hidden Ridge 55% Slope Cabernet Sauvignon ($49.99) &#8211;<\/b> &#8220;Rich, intense and well-centered, with vibrant blackberry, cedar, crushed rock and tobacco leaf flavors, ending with ripe, chewy tannins and good length.&#8221; <b>92 Points Wine Spectator<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><b>Carlisle Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel ($49.99) &#8211;<\/b> Medium-dark to dark ruby. Drop-dead gorgeous aromas of cherry, herbs, and spice box spill from the glass. I could smell this all day! On the palate, full bodied with an explosion of red cherry fruit. Suave tannins build through the long finish. A remarkable wine combining both power and elegance. Drink from release with a good decant through 2020.\u00a0 <b>92 Pts.
