Mars Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Join AllocationIn the glass, you will find signature notes of huckleberry, olallieberry, and wild sage, carried through by blueberry, cassis, and graphite with a lift of spearmint. Firm, fine-grained tannins give it a long, savory finish that closes on dark chocolate. It is wonderful now and best from 2032.
