Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 90
History blends 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and smaller amounts of Malbec, Merlot, Zinfandel and Cabernet Franc. The fruit comes from well-known vineyards such as Cold Creek and Canoe Ridge. It has a perfumed nose of cherry, orange blossom, lilac water and a puff of talc. The wine's mouthfeel is smooth and graceful, with flavors of black cherries, orange zest and coffee served with cream.
