Cab/Cab Franc/Merlot blend. Actually pretty darned good and has held up well to aging with structure to spare, but it does have a slightly foxy character to remind you that you are dealing with East coast grapes. Fun to finally try a higher end Long Island red, but this is not going to become a regular thing for me.
