92pts James Suckling

Full-bodied yet fresh and lively, this red offers a good, tannic texture to lift the deep black fruits and baking spices on the palate. Black cherries, blueberries, dark plums, cinnamon, vanilla bean and mocha add to the complexity and breadth.

Winemaker Notes

This wine has a beautiful, deep ruby color with nuanced aromas blending cassis, anise, cola, black cherry pie, and subtle hints of baking spices complemented with cedar and vanilla. On the palate, red and dark fruits are forward and bright with fine, well-integrated tannins that gives it an unctuous mouthfeel. Lingering hints of blackberry, cocoa and toasty vanilla round out the long, lush finish.

Blend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot
