Notes | |||
"The 2017 vintage has a beautiful, deep, ruby-red color. On the nose the notes are of ripe red fruit, such as cherry, strawberry, and plum. With 18 months in French oak barrels, the wine shows good complexity, with notes of tobacco, sweet spice, and very well balanced toast in the background. On the palate the aroma profile reappears, with the wine showing balance and an enveloping character, medium body and a long finish, full of creamy sensations and persistent fruit character." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Beautiful richness and intensity on the nose with sliced plums, chocolate and some meat and earth. This is full-bodied with loads of fruit and ripe tannins. Smoky and rich. Flavorful finish. Still a baby. Please give this three or four years to come together. Drink after 2022." —James Suckling "Powerful and well-structured, with cedar and leafy notes to the concentrated red fruit and spice flavors. Dried green herbal accents show midpalate, leading to a mineral-infused finish that lingers with a dollop of anise. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Merlot. Drink now through 2026. 5,200 cases made, 300 cases imported." —Wine Spectator |
