| OAKVILLE, NAPA VALLEY |
 |
Tasting Notes: Rich aromatics blend with juicy, jammy fruit that are complex and concentrated. It is blended with 3% Cabernet Sauvignon complementing its dark color and lively texture. An expanded flavor profile exhibits tobacco, plum, vanilla bean, and blackberry that integrate with toasty oak nuances. Silky and smooth it seamlessly blends great acid and tannin. |
