Concentrated aromas of blackberries and black cherries with an inviting hint of cedar. The wine’s silky palate is long and expansive, boasting a beautiful balance of black fruit and fine tannin structure. Its finish is lively, lingering and laced with a sweetness of fruit. A deliciously seductive wine to be enjoyed now or cellared through 2028. Decant for 60 to 90 minutes to elevate aromas and flavors. 

Winemaker Rob Davis says the year was so good the wine 'made itself.' It’s big but balanced with what seems a signature of the year: a plush, almost seductive texture. The aromas of graphite and crushed herbs stand out right now, while lush black cherry fruit and a cola note merge in a long concentrated finish that has a bit of sweetness. It was aged in 69% French oak; Davis says more American oak would have made it 'mushy'.

This is a complex, layered and elegantly conceived wine. It's enjoyable now in its juicy waves of red currant and cassis, with a background hint of brown sugar and toasted oak.
