Palate
a rich core of blackberry, cassis, dark plum and black cherry flavors framed by lovely brown spice notes of cinnamon, cardamom and clove. Aged in new and seasoned oak barrels – mostly French - the Cabernet-dominated blend shows classic oak characteristics of sandalwood and vanilla and a hint of lightly browned marshmallow. With soft yet structured tannins and a fleshy, generous mid-palate, this is the essential holiday wine, offering a warm, glowing sensation that will persist until the last candle is blown out.
