Ravines Wine Cellar Cabernet Blend, Le petit Caporal 2016 Finger Lakes, Seneca lake

The wine has a deep but vivid cherry color. The nose has prominent hints of oak as well as a brightness and liveliness from the considerable Cabernet Franc portion of the blend. It has a complex set of aromas, ranging from juicy red berries to dark, sweet spices & cocoa powder. The palate is lush and mouth-filling, any hints of wood and vanilla disappears in the mouth to leave a good purity and concentration. Graphite becomes more apparent instead. Both the acidity and the tannins are shy making the structure more about the mouth-feel & flavors than the actual texture. It has a great matu-rity already and a mellow, tuneful finish
