absolutely huge fruit blows out of this bottle as soon as it's opened. a rush of gorgeous black cherry is buoyed by snappy acidity and generously finished with smoke and coffee accents from having aged in 50% new oak. details of iron and baking spice emerge also, and the silky tannins glide through a lengthy and delightful finish. a blend of 87% cabernet sauvignon, 8% cabernet franc and 5% merlot.
