Made with 6% Merlot, 3% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a rich, lively, expressive nose of black raspberry, oak and red florals that sway with sweet herbs and elegant baking spices. Full-bodied, fresh and still tannic, the wine will take a couple more years to come around but will be a juggernaut once it picks up momentum. After spending almost two years in 87% new French oak barrels, it will need some time, so be patient.

The ride begins with blueberry and black olive aromas graced by anise and thyme notes. Grippy tannins and a full-bodied mouthfeel accompany the wine's red raspberry, pomegranate and cedar flavors. There's also a wee spice note that's difficult to pin down. Enjoy with steak and portobello mushrooms from 2024-2038.

A handsome and distinguished red, with well-structured accents of blackberry, dusty herbs, black olive and river stone that gather tension toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032. 2,247 cases made.
