The 2017 Bell Reserve Cabernet displays a beautiful vivid plum color in the glass. The aromas recall warm spice notes of cinnamon, allspice, and rich black fruit. Blueberry compote, dried strawberry and pastry flavors abound on the palate, along with floral violet and spice notes that echo the nose. The finish tantalizes with waves of sweet maple, candied pecan and vanilla flavors with a dusting of cocoa that linger and tempt you back for another sip.
