Winemaker Notes

Intriguing, with notes of fig, black cherry and plum, underlined by fresh-tilled mulch, pink peppercorn and seared steak all melding together in a dark, dense intriguing package. The palate follows with the fruits married to cedar, fresh rosemary, sweet tobacco, green tomato, and a tinge of balsamic reduction. The tannins are grippy without feeling too young, rather they grab you and pull you in, and are balanced by mouthwatering acidity. A wine to ponder over.

Blend: 89% Cabernet Sauvignon (clone 7), 11% Petit Verdot

I love the balance and purity here, even more than in the 2018, and it has a pure, seamless style as well as impressive aromatics of cassis, spring flowers, and spice.
