Dark ruby. Aromatically closed up initially, this wine opens to reveal blue and black fruit, spices, and light herbal notes. The palate is polished, soft and textured, refined and elegant. This is a very, very pretty wine in a style seldom seen in these parts. 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot, and 2% Merlot. Klipsun, Wallula, Seven Hills, and Canoe Ridge vineyards. Aged 20 months in French oak (41% new). 14.7% alcohol. 161 cases produced. Sample provided by winery.
