This wine blends 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. It’s been aged for 15 months in French oak barriques, 20% of which are new. In the glass, you’ll notice a deep red color with a hint of purple. On the nose, there’s an inviting mix of ripe dark fruit—think mulberry, currant, and blackberry—layered with toasty cedar notes. There’s even a touch of bay leaf, gravel, and a light perfume beneath it all.
