Rich, complex aromas of blackcurrant, black cherry, mocha and vanilla on the nose. Full-bodied and bold, bramble fruit flavors mingle on the palate with notes of espresso and cedar while firm tannins lend structure and lead to a long, smooth finish.

Blended with 5% each of Petit Verdot and Malbec, plus 2% each of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, it shows a calm strength and emerging complexity.
