Varietal: Bordeaux Style. Cabernet Sauvignon-58%,  Merlot - 26%, Cabernet Franc-16%

As is true to the character of wines from the Red Mountain appellation, this wine has a deep, dark, blackish color, intense concentration, and considerable structure. Aromas of black cherry, vanilla, pipe-tobacco and cassis, expand into blackberry, plum and brown sugar as the wine breathes. Intense flavors of ripe blackberry, plum and black cherry, are followed by notes of pipe-tobacco and barrel spice. Lengthy fruit and supple acidity are framed with well-structured tannins. Rich, powerfully concentrated, and yet well-balanced, it will drink well now and should easily continue to mature and gain complexity for 9 to 12 years.
