About the Wine: Estancia is a well known and respected brand. They make several varietals but they are best known for their Cabs.
About This Wine: The center is dark purple with a red rim. Spicy raspberry, cherry, and wood smoke make up a reasonably complex nose. Red fruit starts the palate, followed by heavy tannins on the mid palate, followed by an oak spice finish.
Drinking This Wine: Red meat. Just eat lots and lots of red meat with this.
Overall Impression: The tannins are too sharp. I think another year of bottle aging will benefit this wine greatly. Until then it is bit overpriced.
