WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This vintage offers bold layers of blackcurrant, plum, and boysenberry, accented by dark chocolate, sage, and hints of tobacco and spice. A warm growing season brought richness, while bright acidity and fine tannins deliver balance and a long, structured finish. Approachable now, with aging potential.
TASTING NOTES:
There’s lovely depth of flavor, with aromas of black currants, potpourri, spices, plums and earth. The palate is well crafted, with firm yet refined tannins and an earth-driven edge. Made from 90% cabernet with touches of the other four Bordeaux varieties, this is an early-drinking, supple and approachable cabernet with plenty of ageability. Drink or hold.
