Opaque violet color with promising plum, cassis, violets aromas. On the palate it's medium-bodied with firm tannins, medium-acidity fruit forward tart plum, cassis, black cherry and vanilla flavors with a hint of graphite minerality. Medium-plus finish. Blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petit Verdot. Aged 21 months in 40% new French oak 14.4 % abv

What Martin said…. Solid wine, but didn’t need to hold onto it this long.

I really liked this blend. What I would expect from Justin at Va Piano. Five varietals make for a fruity good result.
