Likely a PNP (poured at tasting event in Houston last night). Very deep magenta color. Shortbread cookie and black cherry on the nose. Smooth, dry palate, with nice, lingering acidity. Firm, full, somewhat zesty, lower intensity tannins on the longish finish.
This needs air, which would likely increase the score a bit. I’m not sure it’s any better than their lower priced Date Night CS.

Cherry, raspberry, pipe tobacco, vanilla and baking spices. Delightful. Will age well, but I love the Phifer-Pavitt Cabernets a bit on the youngish side.

Dark cherry, dried sage, a hint of vanilla and warm spice. Creamy and lush with ample acidity for balance.
