Red licorice, plums and dark cherries are found in the aromatic profile of this wine. A blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot, and 4% Petit Verdot, it is medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and deep. Its complex, intense, and powerful core reveals flavors of blackberries, cassis, licorice, and road tar. Loaded with tannin, this structured effort also displays a long, highly expressive finish.
