Aging: 18 months in French oak barrels

Tasting Notes

 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot. Deep ruby color. On the nose, this wine has ripe dark fruit such as cherries and blackberries. Oak is well integrated with baking spice and subtle cedar notes. The medium, chewy tannins display a long flavorful finish. Pairs well with grilled red meats (especially steak), hearty stews and hard cheeses.

Critical Reviews

A late arrival shows that the trip was worthwhile in this tasty glass of Cabernet Sauvignon that arrived for judging just in the nick of time. Correct aromas and flavors, with balanced oak spice, moderate grip and a long finish. A fine beef accompaniment at a fair price! A Double Gold Award winner at the 2019 Toast of the Coast International Wine Competition. ~94 Rich Cook, Wine Review Online

Cassis, cherry reduction and red licorice notes are packed together in this red, carried by solid, savory-tinged structure that adds needed energy through the finish. Best from 2022 through 2027. 2,500 cases made. ~91 Wine Spectator
