I continue to be impressed with Colorado wine. Wonderful weeknight wine paired with a steak, sweet potato, pear and spinach salad. Poured in my glass 30 minutes before drinking to let breathe. Bordeaux blend w/ plurality of Cabernet Sauvignon (43%), Petit Verdot (30%), Cab Franc (14%), Merlot (8%), Chardonnay (3%) and Malbec (2%). Perfumed nose (violets, red berries), good spice and fruit on the entry, medium body, and tannins to last for a few more years if desired (maybe 2017-2018). Becomes more nuanced over an hour, it may pair well with elk or venison if decanted.
