This blend of 65% Corvina and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon delivers quite a punch from the 2011 vintage, showing impressive depth of color and flavor. Dark toned fruit reminiscent of dried black cherries is firmed just a bit by round tannins and a subtle edge of oak. Fully mature but certainly not played out, this would be a great choice with braised meat dishes. A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 San Diego Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
