Deep purple in color, the 2010 Leese Fitch Cabernet Sauvignon blend jumps from the glass with aromas of juicy blackberries, ripe blueberries, dark chocolate, and toasted walnuts. A lot of great Cab flavor in the mouth; black currants, ripe blackberries, dark cherry, milk chocolate, espresso, clove, and vanilla oak nuances. The finish is truly lingering with a lot of dark blue fruit notes as well as some great tannic structure and integrated French and American oak flavors. This 2010 Cab begs for a great steakhouse steak with all the trimmings. I would pair this with a classic New York strip steak with a baked potato with sour cream and chives with a side of creamed spinach. Another good pairing would be steak fajitas with guacamole, spaghetti with a rich ragu alla bolognese, or just a really good burger. I don't think you can go wrong here.
