- In detail
Nose: The nose shows the berry fruits likened to ripe blackcurrants and black cherries. The subtle hints of wood fill the nose and add weight and balance to the length of the nose. The wood does not over power the nose but rather supports the varietals, allowing the fruit of the Merlot and Cabernet Franc to come forward. This nose excites one to want to taste the wine and creates an expectation for the palate.
Palate: The palate has enormous follow through, with soft ripe tannins which can only be achieved from grapes that are picked at optimum ripeness. The Cabernet Sauvignon fills the mid palate and offers the weight and fullness. The red berry fruits travel though the whole palate and reveal a soft velvety yet serious wine with the ability to pack in density and depth. The subtle reds fruits from the Merlot and the acidity from the Cabernet Franc complete this wonderful drinking experience. This wine will age well for the next 5 to 8 years and will drink very well now on its own or with food.
