"(A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Petit Verdot and 10% Syrah) Bright medium ruby. Lively aromas of black cherry, dark raspberry and flowers. High-toned, fine-grained and superconcentrated but quite powerful and youthfully closed today, despite boasting a rather creamy texture. A big boy that finishes with major tannins that hit the palate late. The Cabernet here is from an alluvial gravel and clay hillside in the cool Coombsville area."
