This wine is loaded with ripe red cherries, cassis, vanilla and toast. On the palate the wine is full with pleasantly soft tannins. The bursting fruit gives way to a lingering finish with notes of candied cherries and earthy tones. The grapes were harvested at optimum maturity, providing an excellent balance of sugar, fruit flavor, acid and ripe tannins. Soon after pressing, the wine was put in American and French oak barrels to undergo malolactic fermentation to soften the wine. They were then aged in barrels for a minimum of 24 months.
82% Cabernet, 13% Merlot, 6% Syrah
