"The 2008 Claret is a gorgeous, full-bodied wine bursting with fruit. Dark red fruit, savory herbs, flowers and menthol are some of the many notes that flow from this delicious, beautifully balanced red. This generous, inviting wine should continue to drink well for another decade, perhaps longer. This is a fabulous wine for the money. The main vineyard sources are Somerston, Snowden, DeSantis and Rodgers Creek. In 2008 the blend is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 12% Syrah, 4% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc."
