Winery Note:
2004 Oculus epitomizes exquisite balance, managing to be distinctively complex and concentrated yet elegantly styled, with a smooth, polished texture. The signature of the wine is the multiplicity of layers that unfold into decadent plum, blackberry and chocolate notes. The distinguishing rich, loamy earthiness and fine ripe tannins provide structure and mingle with lush fruit, ensuring that the wine will develop additional complexity over many years. If enjoying Oculus in its youth, we suggest decanting prior to serving.
The blend for the 2004 Oculus is 74% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot.
