A harmonious balance of classic Bordeaux varietals, this vintage has heady aromas of cocoa, vanilla, leather, sagebrush and saskatoon berry. These lead to a lush palate brimming with mocha and black cherry, along with a subtle umami savoriness. A full round mouthfeel with supple structured tannins and a lasting minerality on the finish. If enjoying young, decanting is recommended. Pairs wonderfully with a hearty stew and blue cheese dumplings or a grilled rib eye off the BBQ.
