Tasting Notes

When to drink
Long term cellaring of 20+ years
On the nose
Fruit power is the hallmark of this blend, dark berry fruits and some sage adding a background herbal lift. Christmas cake mixed spice and oak is evident but all in balance with the fruit.
On the palate
Beautiful fruit, a bright acid drive, and tannins form a solid foundation for the extended future. Brooding but not intimidating, this will be exciting to watch evolve.
Product Notes
Cabernet Sauvignon 55% Merlot 28% Malbec 12% Petit Verdot 5%. All hand-harvested and processed across a sorting table, only the best berries go into this wine. The Cabernet fruit is crushed to build structure through fermentation.
