Sipping Fine Wine

9.4

From a 5 Bordeaux grape blend: 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 2.5% Cabernet Franc, 2.3% Petit Verdot & 0.3% Malbec, aged 24 months French oak, 85% new, Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe dark fruits, cedar and floral spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, black cherry and currants with notes of herbs, pepper spice and earthy notes. Fine sweet tannins, long finish ending with cacao, smoky oak, fruit and mineral tang. Very nice, aging well, but time will reward! — 16 days ago

Similar to a cab sauv — strong aroma but not too strong on the palette. Not oaky which is great! Dad likes this one a lot. — a month ago

Beautifully made wine. Just a really nice bottle. Tart cherries with a side of black tea that hangs on for a bit. — a month ago

Nose: hint oak. Airy. Hint sea breeze. Lovely. White flowers.

Palate: lovely sweet oak. Sweet wood. Rich. Not over the top. — 6 months ago
