description: This is a spicy take on Cabernet, with some of the pepper and smoked meat character of Syrah coming through, despite the fairly small amount in the blend. The concentration of cassis and black cherry fruit is astonishing, matched with ripe tannins that hint at black olive. Despite the somewhat heavier oak influence, it is the fruit that stands front and center.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
