Notes of of black cherry, blackberry and plum are complemented by hits of toasted oak, dried currant and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and ample brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish.

Blend: 87% Cab Sauvignon, 6% Petite Sirah, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Cab Franc, 2% Malbec.

94 Points –James Suckling

A slightly high-toned red with walnut, berry, chocolate and spice on the nose and palate. Medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins and a rich finish. A little firmer and tighter than in the past, which equates to a more serious red. Drink or hold.
