It draws from a deep well of dark berries, well-integrated oak spices and accents of tobacco and singed herbs for great breadth and complexity. While full bodied and rather tannic, those tannins are silky and the wine feels relaxed as you sip. Best through 2030." — Jim Gordon 92 Points - James Suckling"Rich cassis, blackberries, sandalwood and chili chocolate on the nose followed by a smoothly rendered palate with juicy and supple fruit. Tight and fine-grained, with a lengthy, fruit-expressive finish. 58% cabernet sauvignon, 21% merlot, 16% cabernet franc, 3% petit verdot and 2% malbec. Drink in the next 5 years."
