A Man of CULTure

TASTING NOTES:
“Black cherry and raspberry aromas form the bright red fruit profile on this classic Cabernet. Smooth and silky in texture, refined powdery tannins provide an excellent framework for the fleshy ripe mid palate. Hints of nutmeg and espresso bean add to the complexity of flavors on the palate. The finish is decidedly long and persistent.” (AbV 14.2%, 83% Cabernet Sauvignon 8% Petite Sirah 5% Merlot 4% Syrah)

BARRELS:
15 months in 50% French Oak and 50% American Oak.
