Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Petit Verdot is styled by the famous French consultant, Michel Rolland. Befitting his Bordelais stylings, this is a polished, rich red, with red and black fruit, resin, sultry cola, dark chocolate, dusky spices and a lifted, potent acidity. Tannins are supple, but sticky around the edges, reflective of its youth. This is a winemaker's wine, benefitting from a decant now, but with the structure and balance to cellar for a couple years before pouring with grilled beef.
