Nose
When you uncork the wine, the room fills with aromas of dried herbs, bay leaf, wet earth, blueberry, violet and chocolate.
Palate
This 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Petit Verdot blend delivers a mouth feel that is soft and delicate with a velvety texture combined with incredible integrated tannins. Freshness, light on its feet for a big wine, and seductive with a soft finish that goes on and on, are thoughts that come to my mind.
