CELLAR SELECTION
Concentrated but supple, this quietly powerful wine cradles massive black and blue fruits in velvety tannins while soaking the palate with blueberries, cocoa and black figs. Made with 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is tempting to drink now for its undeniable richness, but is built for the long haul, too. Best from 2028-2040.
