one of the winery's most celebrated releases each year, this blend of all five major bordeaux red varieties is an excellent showcase of carmel valley's class. freshly squeezed blackberry and blackcurrant fruit meet with beef char, charcoal and dried lilacs on the nose. the palate tastes of lava rocks, dark chocolate, fresh boysenberries, dried mint and beef jerky, all woven together with a touch of smoke.
