Sep 9th, 2015 Very nice blend of Cab Sauv, Merlot, Cab Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. Surprisingly tannic early on, but it developed beautifully after decanting.
Nice bouquet of cedar, pencil lead, and lilacs. Well rounded, slightly astringent on the palate. Lovely, soft fade with ahi t of currant on the aftertaste. I highly recommend this with red meats if you can find it.
