Ballard Lane

A generous Cabernet with ripe blackberry, cassis and dark cherry, layered with cedar, vanilla and a touch of baking spice. The palate is ample without becoming heavy, with plum fruit, supple texture and smooth, rounded tannins carrying into a polished finish. The compact half-bottle format is well suited to grilled beef, burgers or roast mushrooms when a full bottle is more than the occasion calls for.
