Dusty ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, cracked black pepper, and leather satchel of cavendish tobacco with a satiny, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, captivating, medium-long tart black cherry, black plum and pomegranate, leather and pepper, and black tea finish with coating, chalky, woody, drying, well-integrated tannins and light oak flavor. A beautiful Cabernet blend with strategic use of Merlot for added plum fruit and Syrah for blackberries, structure, and a food friendly sprinkle of pepper.
