Nose

The nose is restrained yet complex.

Palate

Brimming with blackberry and blueberry, dark chocolate, and a touch of brandied cherry.
Marked by firm but well-integrated tannins, with notes of black pepper and sweet spices. The alcohol is noticeably high, yet it doesn't upset the balance of the wine. We're dealing with a ripe, full-bodied, and powerful structure. The finish is long and rich, lingering with deep, concentrated flavors.

Growing Conditions

Our terroir tends to favor Cabernet Franc over Cabernet Sauvignon, making the latter a rarer success - but when it does succeed, it does so spectacularly.
