Winemaker Notes

Dark cherry, raspberry, baking spice, cola, and subtle toasty oak form a focused aromatic profile that feels both inviting and balanced. The palate offers dark juicy blackberry supported by silky tannins, medium oak structure, and bright acidity that keeps the wine lively. A smooth, creamy texture carries through to a long, balanced finish.

Blend: 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot
