Nose

Explosive aromas of fresh vibrant fruit, black and bing cherry, blackberries and pomegranate, mingle with an elevated roasted hazel nut and toasted vanilla bean aromatic to create a compelling beckon call.

Palate

Layers of fruit, crossing a spectrum of red and black berries, and the unmistakable hint of dark chocolate, yield a richness that is also bright in pure fruit character. The firm tannins of Cabernet provide enough structure, but the mouthfeel driven by Merlot is decidedly lush and seductive. The blend finishes strong with expansive and lingering notes. By design, this wine delivers at the pull of the cork.

Aging

20 months in new and seasoned French oak
