The Rhino of our #winesafari. It is a light-bodied Cabernet, bottled young, with grapes from three wine regions in California – Napa, Lodi, and Paso Robles. With its soft integrated tannins, this wine is incredibly well-balanced. Youthful and fruit-forward in presentation, you get blueberry and blackberry notes on the palate and hints of black raspberry crumble, vanilla, and cocoa on the nose.
