a unique version of andrew will's champoux, this is more than half cabernet franc, with merlot, cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot filling in the rest. thick and tannic, yet perfectly ripe and almost silky, it coats the palate with black cherry, graphite, slate and a bit of chalk. all that said, the fruit more than holds its own against the terroir's minerality. drink this with your best steak, and give it plenty of breathing time.
