GRAPES VARIETIES: 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot, 2% & 1% Petit Verdot
TASTING NOTES: Blackcurrants, cassis and graphite on the nose. Pure and fragrant. Full-bodied with superb density and tannins that are so polished. The texture is like touching a silk ball. Its finish is very long and compact with slightly chewy tannins, but it will come together beautifully with time in the bottle.
FOOD PAIRINGS: Red Meat | BBQ | Game | Stew | Bo Sot Vang | Bun Bo Nam Bo
