(Macari Vineyards Dos Aguas North Fork Long Island) A blend of 45% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot, 15% cabernet franc and 4% malbec, and while still a baby in its development, is more approachable that you might think. The nose opens with intense pipe tobacco and Thai basil and oregano, with black cherry and green olive beneath. Black cherry leads the way on the balanced palate with accents of tobacco, black licorice, dried herbs and more green olive. The tannins are firm, but will integrate and soften with more bottle time. The finish lingers for 30-plus seconds and features tobacco and spice.
