A massive blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon that already shows great depth and power. It’s surely headed into a long life of mellowing and exposing myriad charms. That said, it’s a presently a true delight already, with blackberry, black cherry, dried herbs, pepper and violet aromas, seamless translation on the palate and a finish that proves extremely persistent. Bravo! A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
