Winemaker Peter Heitz brings us this beautifully opulent yet structured blend — of Bordelais varieties with a touch of northern Italy added. It’s a beautiful mix of black and blue fruit, bright spice and touches of leaf and earth, all delivered with a rich texture full body, supple tannins and a very long well integrated finish. I was stunned by the quality across the line at Turnbull. Contains 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Syrah, 10% Lagrein, 10% Malbec and 3% Cabernet Franc.
