title: Cadence 2011 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Red (Red Mountain)
description: A blend of Cabernet Franc (35%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (18%) with the rest equal parts Merlot and Petit Verdot, this wine offers brooding notes of herbs, black currant, mineral and flowers. The lighter color belies its rich structure of firm tannins and tart, lively acids that merit time in the cellar to be fully appreciated. Best after 2018 but will be well worth the wait.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Ciel du Cheval Vineyard
