The notes on the 2016 CA 1 apply here as well. (nose of black fruit and cassis, painted with cedar, clove and cinnamon. The palate is alive with the dark berry notes and oak spice, and a monstrous set of tannins that need some decant time to soften.) This is a wild wine, full of aromas and flavors, brimming with tannins, ready to rumble.

This dark wine offers a nose of black fruit and cassis, painted with cedar, clove and cinnamon. The very expressive aromas put me in mind of the holidays.

Don’t worry, the wine will still handle any steak you put in front of it.

Deep and silky. Aged leather and luscious forest floor nose. Elegant yet punchy....representative. BBQ would overwhelm. This is a more nuanced food wine.

Very nice carmenerie with a rush of ripe fruit and raspberries balanced against a slightly high acidity. Perfect for cutting through rich steak and baked potatoes while not breaking the bank.
