    Vintage Description:

    Here's a quality, easy-to-drink blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The wine is integrated and smooth with no rough spots. Black fruit, pressed rose, earth and spice are carefully woven together. All elements are in place, and the wine is available at a very attractive price point.
