The aroma of the 2019 Smith-Madrone Cabernet Sauvignon immediately hits you with a beautiful combination of blue/black fruit. Cassis, black cherry, marionberry and black plums dominate. Reach a little deeper and you will find subtle hints of black pepper, graphite, black olives and a range of spices. An experienced taster should also be able to identify the signature quality that 12% Cabernet Franc lends to this wine's seductive nose.
