Incredibly dark, nearly black in the glass with blended aromas of dark fruits, licorice and tobacco leaf with hints of damp earth. This 2016 Hedges Family Estate HIP Cabernet Sauvignon is medium bodied and very easy to drink with flavors of dark fruits, dark chocolate, flakes of fine pepper and cinnamon. This wine finishes brightly and has velvety tannins that gives a welcoming and smooth feel in the mouth. I like this wine. The dark colors and peppery notes hint that this is a Cabernet blend, and for this price it certainly is a bargain!
