this cabernet franc-dominant blend, with additional splashes of cabernet sauvignon, petit verdot and malbec, leads with earthy tones of menthol, black-currant leaf and tobacco. there's ample black-fruit flavors to support the herbal core—think blackberry, plum and cassis—all framed by medium tannins and a clean, peppery finish. drink now–2016.
