Another Porter delight. 30% Cab Sauvignon, 28% Malbec, 27% Merlot, 14% Cab Franc, 1% Petit Verdot. Intense purple color. Red fruit, vanilla, and oak on the nose. The pallet has the same notes with a velvety bold feel; it is tannic, dry, with high alcohol and medium acidity. Balanced with pronounced oak and a lingering finish. Hard not to like this wine, very round, well structured, persistent finish, just lovely.

Love this blend. Full body, dry, smooth, mild acidity. Loaded with black fruits and strawberries. Get some if you can!

Excellent Bordeaux blend. Full body, dry, mild acidity. Lots of red and black cherries. Will age well; very impressed with this winery!
