This beautiful onyx and dark plum-colored wine lift notes of blueberries, cola, spices, lavender, and tobacco to your nose. On the palate, mocha, dark fruit, exotic spices, cola, and tobacco leaf flow seamlessly into a long, rich, and persistent finish. Enjoy now, or cellar for another decade.
Winemaking: The core of this wine is the original clone planted at the estate and layered with clone 332, 214 and “goddess”. Small lot fermentations, cold soak pre fermentation and less than half of the lots with extended maceration. Ninteen months in 70% new French oak led to the final blend of 97% Cabernet Franc, 2% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot.
