This is a dry blend of vinifera Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Syrah along with hybrid Chelois from the warm 2015 vintage. You'll find it medium weight with both black and red fruits: black cherry, black berry, cranberries, raspberries, and herbs. The wine is fleshy with a slight rusticity and savory depth.
