A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit-Verdot. A distinctly ruby color with an abundance of wild berries (blueberry and currant) and spice and a concentrated and elegant mouthfeel. This wine is also taking its first steps in evolution and all the tasters predicted that it will have a lifespan hard to match. While it is very good now, it would be truly sinful to consume it in its infancy.
