Our signature wine is a marriage of carefully selected barrel lots from an outstanding vintage. Aromas of red currant, cola, forest floor and cardamom spice introduce the wine. The palate is concentrated and full-bodied, defined by blackberry, plum and notes of dark chocolate. Fine-grained tannins lend grace and balance to a structural wine that promises 15+ years of enjoyment.

Additional Notes

The winter leading up to the 2013 vintage was dry and warm, with most of the seasonal rainfall in December 2012. Warm winter temperatures brought forth bud break two weeks earlier than normal. Spring and summertime temperatures were pleasant, making it an ideal growing season that yielded fruit of superlative quality. The Bordeaux varieties were harvested from September 12 to October 23.
