Nice Bordeaux blend of 55% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 17% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, herb, sweet spice and smoky scents. On the palate flavors of black cherry and ripe strawberry with vanilla, licorice and cacao, lively acidity. Fine ripe tannins, well balanced, long finish ending with fruit and spice.

Had this with gnocchi and short rib meal. Was comforting, soothing and just a nice way to end a work week. Not overly complex but medium tannins and finish.
