WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This luxurious wine draws you in with soaring aromas of cherry pie, grenadine and plum, as well as delightful notions of sagebrush, fennel, sarsaparilla and hints of flinty minerality and barrel spice. On the broad, supple palate, silky tannins underscore concentrated flavors of dark fruit and spice, with sophisticated notes of cocoa, tobacco leaf, black tea, nutmeg and cardamom emerging on the long, rich finish.
Blend: 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, 2% Malbec
TASTING NOTES:
This is a focused cabernet that has ripe plums, blackberries, tea leaves and dark chocolate on the nose. It’s medium- to full-bodied with fine-grained tannins and a nicely linear and balanced finish. Drink or hold.
James Suckling, 92 pts.
