A masterfully integrated Cabernet showing perfect fifteen-year evolution.

The nose opens with concentrated dark cherry liqueur and chocolate ganache, followed by cedar box and dried herbs. On the palate, this wine flows like velvet, delivering waves of ripe blackberry, mocha, and warming spices. The tannins have softened into perfect harmony, while bright acidity keeps everything focused. The finish lingers with vanilla bean and tobacco leaf notes that speak to thoughtful barrel aging and cellar evolution.
