Crafted from a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot, and 3% Petit Verdot, this outstanding vintage delivers remarkable depth, refinement, and balance. Layers of cassis, black cherry, plum, violets, cedar, graphite, and subtle spice unfold over a silky yet powerful palate framed by fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity. Matured in French oak barrels, the 2015 has earned acclaim from leading wine critics for its precision, complexity, and exceptional ageing potential. Equally rewarding now with decanting or after further cellaring, it pairs beautifully with premium cuts of beef, lamb, venison, duck, and mature cheeses.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWine Enthusiast | \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(148, 3, 3); text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWE 96\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublished: Feb 1, 2018\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a powerful wine, with wood aging that adds richness to the dense tannins.
