TASTING NOTES:
“Deep ruby in color, this Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a huge amount of blueberry, plum, and violets on the nose, with oak spices shining through. On the palate, blue fruit flavors combine with cassis and plum to create a very deep berry and fruit profile. The wine finishes with strong oak spice supported by the tannic structure. Very drinkable with a strong acidity complementing the tannins and fruit flavors.” (AbV 14.9%, pH 3.71, TA 0.62 g/mL, 26.1° Brix)

BARRELS:
23 months in French (76%) and American (24%) oak, with 19% new.
