Composition: Predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with intricate layers from the vineyard's varietals. Fine-tuned vine age and a blend of loamy soil contribute to the wine's depth.

Aging: Carefully aged in French oak barrels to enhance its structure and complexity.
Wine Critic Reviews
James Suckling (95): Densely packed and deeply brooding with aromas of bitter chocolate, licorice, blackberry compote and dark cherries. The full, powerful palate delivers layers of ripe black fruit, espresso and crushed rocks, supported with firm, mouth-coating tannins. Intense and structured with a long, slightly biting finish. Best from 2027.
