The 2017 True Vineyard Immigrant is comprised of 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, and 29% Cabernet Franc. You will be allured by the expressive aromatics, with intense, dark-fruited purity. This palate offers ultra-rich baked blackcurrants, blueberries, black cherries, and currant fruit lathered in spicy notes of cloves and anise. The wine is much more approachable after a 60-minute decant with mouthwatering natural acidity and well-integrated tannins that offer a supple mouthfeel and beautiful lingering finish. It is enticing now, but it is also poised to cellar for another decade.
