Perfumed and complex on the nose, with outstanding aromas of ripe red and black fruits over subtle notes of crème de cassis, tobacco, and leather. Pepper, cinnamon, and dark chocolate notes. In palate is smooth but structured, with silky tannins. A blend consisting mostly of Cab Sauv, with a little Cab Franc, Petit Verdot, and Merlot to round things out.
Deep red leaning into purple, as is characteristic of Carmenère. Intense blackberry and blueberry on the nose, accompanied by pleasing spice notes of bell pepper and black pepper, rounded out by time in French oak barrels, delivering a very complex wine. The palate of the wine shows extreme smoothness and potency, with a very long, pleasant finish. 85% Carmenere, 15% Cabernet Franc.
