    The aromas bring notes of green herb and purple fruit. The palate is barrel forward, with vanilla flavors up front and the tannins showing a touch of astringency.

  • 201287 pts

    The barrel notes of vanilla and wood spice are out front on this blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, 1% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot. It's dry in feel, pulling up a bit short.

  • 2011

    This serviceable red blend includes smaller amounts of Merlot and Syrah, with tart red fruits and drying tannins. It dries out the mouth with a chalky sensation, suggesting it would be best enjoyed with red meat.
