TASTING NOTE
Seductive, depth, cedar, oriental spices, wild berry, cocoa, finely etched finish.The 2023 growing season unfolded at a moderate pace, shaped by generous rainfall, mild spring
temperatures, and a later-than-usual harvest that rewarded patience.
Total rainfall from July 2022 through June 2023 reached 51 inches (historical average of 31 inches)
replenishing soils and providing ample water reserves heading into the growing season. Spring conditions
led to a complete berry set.
Veraison occurred roughly two weeks later than average, and the extended growing cycle allowed for
even, gradual ripening and the development of depth and balance.
An abundant harvest took place between October 7 and 18 under favorable weather conditions
Wine Spectator
- ws96
A loaded wine, though reserved in style, with waves of dense cassis, plum reduction and blackberry preserves moving through authoritatively, while sweet bay leaf, warm loam and tobacco accents fill in the background. The long cast iron spine is deeply buried in the fruit, and this has superior cut and drive. Built for serious cellaring, too. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2024 through 2040. 3,500 cases made.
