I bit of Paso love for tonight. Elegant yet vibrant aromas of cassis, black tea and vanilla. Powerful, muscular black fruit flavors with smooth lingering tannins. This vintage was actually Cabernet Sauvignon dominated.

The 15’ bottling sees Petit Verdot leading this Bordeaux blend at 32%, with 26% CS, 26% Merlot, 13% CF, and 3% Malbec.
Complex and deep nose of blackberry, cassis, fig, dry pine cone, dark soy source, butterscotch, thyme, black pepper, with hint of violet. The palate, while delicious and smooth, lacks the depth I expected. Finely grained tannins lead to a long peppery finish.
377 cases made.

Rich and velvet palate with layers of chocolate, mocha, raisin, blueberry, and dried fruits. So deliciously seductive! I adore this boutique winery. Only 375 cases made for the 2014 vintage, comprising 40% CS, 40% Merlot, 13% Petit Verdot, and 7% Malbec.

Nose of ripe black and blue berries, periodic hints of bell pepper. Great mouthfeel with dusted silky tannins that make you want more & more. Good length. Maybe wait another year or two. 93+
