TASTING NOTE: A blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Cabernet Franc, this wine offers a complex array of blackberry and raspberry, sweet spices, cigar box and cocoa with a touch of red bell pepper. Vibrant acidity gives lift and velvety tannins give a nice texture. Pair with steak and autumn harvest vegetables. (Vintages panel, March 2017) |
