Abeja Cabernet Sauvignon

FROM THE WINERY:

94 Points – Wine Spectator “Offers finesse and structure with elegantly
expressive blackberry, basil and black olive flavors that build richness
towards polished tannins. Drink now through 2028.”

93 Points – James Suckling “Attractive dark plums and berries make for an
attractive nose that carries a sense of ripe fruit with freshness intact. The palate follows
suit with a sleek, rich serving of blackberries and black currants, framed
in smooth-honed tannins. Drink or hold.”
