90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. Aged in American oak barrels (40% new) for approximately 24 months. A full-bodied, classic expression of Alexander Valley Cabernet in a cool vintage with a bright ruby-red colour with purple undertones. Aromas of black cherry, cedar and black olives. On the palate, its dried herb, cocoa and lavender flavours are framed by dusty tannins and a savoury texture.
