This wine from the esteemed Ciel du Cheval Vineyard was blended with 12% Merlot. Aromas of black cherry, anise, cassis, and oak. Mouthfeel is viscous with light tannins. Rich flavors persist of blackberry, anise, black cherry, vanilla and red bell pepper in this slightly vegetal but highly delicious. (Best 2016-2022) - August, 2015 (OB)
