This majestic red wine displays a vibrant purple hue with alluring violet highlights. Its distinguished character emanates from the essence of ripe peppers, spices, and woodland fruits, accompanied by delicate traces of chocolate and a subtle smokiness derived from carefully chosen barrels. On the palate, the tannins are gracefully mild, intermingling the flavors of plump prunes and ripe blackberries with refreshing hints of eucalyptus and mint, imparting a captivating complexity to the wine.

Tasting Panel

"The vineyard sources for this wine are surrounded by rocky soils and granite boulders a mere 11 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. Following a floral entrance of lavender and jasmine, lean notes of slate and espresso take center stage. Plum skin and dark chocolate–covered raisins take hold with chewy tannins."

JS91
James Suckling

"A richer expression of cabernet franc, showing black fruit, tea leaves, dark olives and graphite. Medium to full body with very firm, fine-grained tannins. A hint of wet-stone character, too. Well made. Drink or hold."

Decanter

"Restrained and elegant nose of fresh fruit, while the palate has supple tannins and a lovely smoky finish."
