Wine Review: This ruby colored wine opens with a black cherry and menthol like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is balanced, has nicely integrated acidity, and is not overly complex. It displays cherry and raspberry flavors. The finish is dry and lingers slightly. This wine is very food friendly and easy to drink. It would pair nicely with a gourmet burger with sautéed onion, mushrooms, and Swiss cheese. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2004 Elodian Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich and intensely flavorful wine. Blackberry, cherry, cassis and other dark fruits intermingle with spicy cedar aromas that immediately draw you in to the wine’s complexity and richness. The dark fruit flavors are enriched with subtle coffee and chocolate that coat your mouth with flavors that linger on the palate. The big structure and mouth-feel of this wine create a wonderful texture for you to enjoy as you relish in the powerful flavors of this hedonistic offering. Because of its great structure, this wine tastes great now and will age very well in your cellar for a decade or more…if, of course, you can stand to wait that long to enjoy it!
