The 1984 Cabernet Sauvignon, with 4% Cabernet Franc in the blend, is medium to deep brick colored. It rockets from the nose with bold scents of Christmas pudding, prunes, star anise, and clove oil with touches of sandalwood and sweaty leather. The medium-bodied palate still possesses a great core of dried plums and exotic spice flavors with hints of tobacco, framed by soft, silt-like tannins, finishing savory.
