Some wines age well, while others age amazingly well.
This one is the later version.
Deep and brooding with supple notes.
Bramble and blackberry with blue fruit and figs.
Even bigger on the mid palate with a loooong silky seductive finish that lingers longer!
These Elivette Cab blends are made to age and they rarely disappoint!
Happy Fourth of July weekend!

Light hue on the pour with a surprising texture and depth that’s pleasantly unexpected. Nose stronger than you would expect and the palate bolder than anticipated.
Exposure the the air opens up an even bigger palate that is slightly jr to the Nero misto.

Monastrell and Syrah with jammy fruit and a lot of mouth feel for a Spanish red. Concentrated nose with lingering mid palate and a smooth finish.
