“Earthy, peppery, and black stone aromas give way to rich flavors of black plum, delivered with a supple, refined, and powdery mouthfeel. Fresh and well-balanced.” (James Suckling 2019)

About the wine:
The 2016 blend is more developed and complex. It is a multi-varietal blend of 50% Malbec, 20% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Petit Verdot, with herbaceous and spicy aromas that lend it a pleasant freshness; a medium-bodied palate with texture, balance, and juicy fruit; and vibrant acidity. 10,000 bottles were produced. It was bottled in November 2017.

About the wine:
An aromatic, fresh nose with notes of black berries and Thai basil. Full-bodied on the palate, supported by firm, silky tannins. A blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. Best enjoyed in 2020, when the tannins will have softened.
