This feels like a cool-climate Sauvignon, with light melon and citrus flavors, alcohol at just 12%, and a bone dry finish. This blend of Cabernet and Syrah shows pretty fruit flavors of strawberry and cherry candy, with a bit of cinnamon spice. Light and lively, it’s a style more reminiscent of the sort of wine you might encounter in a carafe in a seaside town in the south of France.——P.G.(3/1/2008)—— 85
