title: Granite Heights 2009 Lomax Reserve Red (Virginia)
description: This blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc and 10% Merlot was aged for 15 months in American and French oak. It shows a nice balance of earth, fruit and oak flavors in the form of turmeric, red flower, tobacco and blackberry notes. It feels lithe and medium bodied, and the acids gain momentum on the cherry-skin- and graphite-flavored finish.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Lomax Reserve
