named after the winery owners' kids niki and kiara, this blend of 54% cabernet sauvignon, 16% malbec, 14% petit verdot, 12% cabernet franc and 4% merlot offers roasted game and subtle blackberries on the nose. it's more complex on the palate, with smoked plums leading into licorice and coffee in the midpalate, finishing on nice and easy tannins.
