A Bordeaux-style blend reserved for superior vintages worthy of its creation. A wine full of dimension due to the blending of Bordeaux’s classic cultivars (Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon). The nose has great spicy aromas of black pepper, chocolate plus cinnamon and nutmeg complimented by ripe berry characters of blueberry and black fruits. The elegant cedar and vanilla characters are laced throughout the nose as evidence of careful oak management. The full-bodied palate presents gripping tannins in high concentration with a punch of black fruit characters such as blueberry, black cherry and black currants. Spices, tobacco and leather are also full on the palate.The dimensions continue into the extensive finish evolving into various tones of berries (especially blueberry), chocolate,spice and cedar.
