Blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 9% Petit Verdot, aged 14 months in 40% new French oak, deep Ruby red color with aromas of red and black fruits with toasty spice. On the palate flavors of black raspberry, currants and black cherry with licorice, toasty oak and tobacco. Fine lush tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and earthy tobacco spice. Drinking well now and will continue to develop!

As good as advertised! The nose permeates the air immediately upon uncorking! And what a nose it is! The ripe fruits just burst out of the bottle before you finish pouring the first few ounces. Full bodied, great mouthfeel, mild tannins but enough to think it could age a bit very nicely. But, why wait when it’s drinking so well already. Even though it sells in the $65-70 range nationally, my local wine store has it for under $40 which makes it quite the bargain. Will definitely be stocking up!! — 5 months ago

On the palate flavors of cherry, plum and raspberry with underlying crispness, adding in some citrus, vanilla and spice. Fine tannins, long finish, well balanced complex ending. Very Nice! — 3 years ago

At 25 years, patience rewarded in this now delightful vintage. No hurry here as this juice is a long distance runner with at another 40 years to enjoy. — 3 months ago

Window is closing for this wine. Cork crumbled into a million pieces and made me worry for the wine but no worries thankfully…Phenomenal. Simply exquisite. Needed 30-40 minutes to open up but it was a complex balanced joy. Coffee, brush and spice. Dark fruit. Rich but perfectly in synch and every drop was delicious. Tremendous vintage and I look forward to the next one. — 4 months ago
