"The 2006 Dead Horse Red Blend was also sourced from the Ciel du Cheval Vineyard. A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Cabernet Franc, 17% Merlot, and 7% Petit Verdot, it was aged in 81% new French oak. Purple-colored, it has a captivating nose of pain grille, mineral, scorched earth, black currant, and blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, on the palate it borders on opulence with layered, spicy black fruits, plenty of fine-grained tannin, outstanding concentration, and a lengthy, powerful finish."
