A full-bodied Napa Valley red wine from St. Helena, California, made from 100% Cabernet Franc. The fruit comes from vineyards planted more than forty years ago, and the winemaking follows a Napa-styled approach with late hanging fruit to build rich flavour depth and avoid green, stemmy character. It has significantly more weight and extraction than many cooler-climate expressions of the grape. Serve at cellar temperature, 60-65°F, with 30 minutes of decanting.

Dark briary fruit of blueberry, blackberry and dark plum, with cedar, vanilla, white pepper, anise and subtle cocoa.

Palate

Concentrated dark cherry and plum, well-integrated tannins, medium-plus acidity, with cinnamon, cardamom, tobacco and cocoa.

Finish

Moderately long with silky tannins, lingering warmth, cinnamon, cardamom, dark currant and cedar.
