Classic California Bordeaux blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and cab franc. Dark, baked brick color. Mature, balanced flavors. Good spice and hints of gravelly earth. Ripe rich fruit and a long, lingering finish. However, it is a bit pricy for its quality.

Wow! Powerful, expressive explosion of old vine fruit. Big intense flavors balance the high alcohol (16.6%). Pairs beautifully with strong, nutty cheeses. This one will knock your socks off. Fantastic.

Light but balanced cab. with mellow fruit and medium finish. Best after aerating or decanting.
