80/8/7/4/1 Cabernet/Franc/Malbec/Petit Verdot/Merlot. Aged in barrel for 29 months, half of that separately among varietals. Nose shows dark fruit, oak. Palette shows cassis, blackberry, dark cherry, cinnamon, vanilla, molasses, pretty profile, medium plus structure across the board, tannins might be as low as medium. This is good stuff. 294 cases made.

Very nice at this stage. Will likely improve with a bit more time but may sacrifice some fruit in the process.
