Layered aromas of fresh red raspberry, blackberry pie and ripe cassis, this deep wine enraptures the senses with fragrant dried violet, gingersnap, dark cocoa and sweet basil impressions.
Lemongrass, honeydew and sweet tropical aromas; crisp and mouthwatering on the palate; lovely citrus and pear flavors.
The Forefront Cabernet is firm and well built; nicely textured and relatively soft on the in the finish.
90 PTS Wilfred Wong. An active wine, this bright and complex Chardonnay offers a wild ride long and minerality in the finish.
