The wine opens with aromatics of red fruit, crème de cassis, leafy tobacco and delicate cinnamon. The palate is juicy and dense with expressive layers of blackberry, black currant, and dark chocolate. It is a dynamic wine that has energy, length, complexity and refinement.
A wine with incredibly inky hues with layers of perfumed plum, dark berries, and mocha aromas followed by hints of spice. The texture on the palate is ultra-concentrated and silky with blackberry flavors and a touch of black pepper, cocoa, and allspice, leading to the lush, lingering, and focused finish.
It is composed of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, 45% Montepulciano 2019 and 10% Petit Verdot 2019. After fermentation, maceration was extended for 20 days, adding to the wine's velvety texture and concentrated, intense flavors before barrel aging. The wine aged 36 months in small, fine-grain American oak barrels ranging from 1 to 3 years old. The wine's structure, color, and fruit expression are very well balanced. This wine will age gracefully over the next ten years or more.
Bright yet full of juicy blackberry flavors, followed by a hint of spicy black pepper, it has a smoothness and zest that work in glorious harmony. Kick back with casual, everyday foods such as grilled chicken, barbecue, pizza, pastas, and burgers.
