A lovely left-bank Bordeaux-styled wine that comprises 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 7% Cabernet Franc that sports a dark ruby core with a purple rim. Aromas of blackberry, cassis, dark plum, cedary herbs, and a hint of frankincense fill the glass. It’s a rich, decadent, and bountiful wine on the nose and on the palate. Flavors of black fruit, tobacco leaf, toasted cinnamon stick, and white pepper are present alongside chalky tannins, high acidity, and a lengthy finish. Hold for a few more years and then enjoy for 15 years or more. Highly recommended.
