The blend is driven by Cabernet Sauvignon and balanced with other varietals bringing both tension and texture to the wine. Syrah gives a touch of earth and spice. Cherry, raspberry, and cassis fruits lead the aromas. Undertones of bramble, floral, creosote, and citrus support the fruit. Further notes of vanilla, anise, mineral, and oak anchor the flavor. Medium to full bodied, caressing tannins provide pleasing texture and a dry finish.
