WINEMAKER'S NOTE
After separate harvesting and fermentation, favorite lots were selected and blended in our upright oak casks. The wines were then aged 12 months in 70% French oak and 30% American oak barrels, of which 39% was new, before an additional two years aging in bottle. The blend consists of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and less than 1% Malbec.
Expert Reviews

DescriptionA seamless wine, our 2007 vintage exudes beautiful, dense, blackberry aromas that echo through the mid-palate. The mouthfeel is silky-smooth with soft, round tannins accented by a vanilla quality from the French oak. The silky, soft finish is reminiscent in style of a Bordeaux Saint-Julien. Enjoyable now or worthy of cellaring through at least 2020. Decant for one hour before serving to further accentuate the aromas and flavors.
