Complex, showy and loaded with fruit. Blueberry, blackberry and strawberry in the mix. Tart finish." "A first rate wine, with well ripened flavors of blackberries, espresso, cola, tea and bitter chocolate, but made more interesting by fresh acidity not often seen in today’s better Merlot. This cool-climate wine also has sturdy tannins that suggest mid-term aging." —Wine Enthusiast, July 2003 "A very good wine, well made.... lovely balance, no hard edges." —John Avery, Master of Wine	2003 "BLOCK 21" CABERNET SAUVIGNON Silver Medal — Tasters Guild International May 2007 Silver Medal — Dallas Morning News May 2007 Bronze Medal — Grand Harvest Awards March 2007 Bronze Medal — 2007 Florida State Fair; International Wine and Grape Juice Competition 88 Points / 1 Puff — Connoisseur's Guide Dec.
