WINEMAKING: The fruit for this wine was sourced from some of the premier upper blocks of the estate. The wine was pumped over twice daily until a balance of color, structure, and flavor extraction had been achieved. Malolactic fermentation on oak smoothed and softened the wine. The wine matured for 16 months in barrels (with 30% new oak). Small amounts of Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc were carefully blended to add depth, softness, and layers of nuance to the wine.

TASTING NOTE: The Cabernet Sauvignon shows beautiful aromas of fresh, ripe blueberries and black plums with notes of mocha and caramel accented by hints of fresh herbs. The palate delivers intense, vibrant, and juicy dark fruit flavors supported and focused by a fine structure and underlying minerality. The finish is lively and fresh with tremendous length.
