It shows ripe fruit and a touch of coffee in the nose. The flavors combine plum with dark berry fruit. Soft tannins appear in the finish giving the wine some aging potential while being very drinkable in its youth. The Union Democrat 2005 Provenance Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford Recommended An elegant light purple, this wine opens with a nose that envelops you in scents of black cherries and other red fruits, with hints of coffee and must floating around the fringes. Medium to full bodied, the wine shows great balance with supple tannins. Rich berry flavors surround notes of sour cherry that build to a finish, which is quite dry and nicely prolonged by lingering notes of "Rutherford Dust". This wine would pair very nicely with a juicy steak right now or would age quite nicely for the next five years.
