The 2015 vintage in Paso Robles was small, and it was harvested on the ripe side, giving softer tannin profiles and more of a plush, ready to drink style to the wines in many cases. Winemaker Patrick Muran seized the opportunity to try some new barrel treatments in this Cabernet Sauvignon, and the result is a ready to drink wine that shows true Paso character, blending east side and west side characteristics. Black cherry, menthol, black plum and soft herb and spice aromas and flavors will get you salivating and ready for a meaty meal, from beef to lamb. Contains 9% Petit Verdot, 5% Malbec and 2% Cabernet Franc.
