On the nose ripe plum, cassis, eucalyptus, light roasted coffee beans, vanilla and hint of cured meat. More stewed fruits on the palate, but with a firm acidic spin. Fresh herbs also provide a lift. Ripe velvety tannins. A bit heat on the long finish. Very delicious.
The Bravura is the winery’s top bottling, and usually is a Bordeaux blend. But for 15’, it’s 100% Cab. 22 months in French barrel, 40% new.
