TASTING NOTE: Blending Cabernet Sauvignon with Grenache and Syrah, this dense wine is packed with superripe fruits. The dark tannins come with black chocolate from the wood aging as well as dark plum flavors. It is a dark wine that needs another year. Drink from 2016. Score - 90 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, July 1, 2015) |
