Our flagship wine is a new world take on a Left Bank Bordeaux blend. Giv-ing off intense aromas of dark plums and black fruit, cassis liqueur, and vanilla spice intertwined with fresh herbs and spicy oak. The palate is rich, soft, and opulent with lovely ripe tannins providing a well structured wine with warmth and generosity. Aged in 40% new French oak for 12 months.
