"A blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon and 36% Petite Sirah with some Malbec and Saint-Macaire, this wine overdelivers for the price in terms of mouthfeel, aroma, flavor, and structure. In this expressive vintage, it shows determination, grip, and finesse as well as a sense of concentration in the form of plum-skin tannins and notes of dried violets, caramel, and cherry ganache; minerality exhibits complexity and stamina."

"Ripe, bold aromas of plums, blackberry compote, blackcurrants, mocha and spices. The palate is full-bodied with a creamy texture and firmly framed tannins. This blend of cabernet sauvignon and petite sirah is not for the faint-hearted."
