Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Beautiful nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, spices, licorice, chocolates, light vanilla, coffee, earth and herbs.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, light cedar, earth, coffee, herbs, light vanilla, toast, tobacco leaf and chocolates.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Alexander Valley. Rich and fruit forward, elegant and nicely balanced.
Still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.
Wine Enthusiasts 93 points.
The nose reminds me of a Napa Cabernet. Complex and entertaining.
A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.
A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec. Aged in (25% new) French and American Oak barrels for 24 months.
14.3% alcohol by volume.
