Paradigm Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Oakville, Napa Valley, California, United StatesOpen blackberry, cassis jam, peppery, black liquorice nose flecked with coffee, floral, leather, vanilla and smoky aromas. Full, ripe, round, juicy, elegant palate with light, grainy tannins. Cassis, blackberry, cedar, tobacco, floral, vanilla, light coffee, black olive and liquorice root flavours. Good finesse and fruit if just a bit tight and or short on the finish. Should improve further over the next five years but drinkable now with a grilled steak.Tasted: 14 December 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
