Using 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot with 8% Cabernet Franc, this is almost a reversal of the blend created for 2015. Floral and cassis aromas, good depth of color with juicy, sweet, fresh with slightly strict Cabernet Sauvignon notes easily accessible. Classic in style, this will be even better with a few years of age. The wine is 13.4% ABV.
