This Paso Robles-grown cabernet sauvignon (made with an uncommon mix of 78% cab, 7% petit verdot, 6% malbec, 6% petit sirah, and three% syrah) comes throughout like many Historical Peaks reds — heavy with beef and ruddy earth notes, its fruit locked up in barely astringent, balsamic notes. Notes of spiced plum and licorice give this wine some moments of intrigue, however the stability by no means fairly will get there, notes of roasted meat lingering alongside a light floral word on the prolonged, extracted end.
