Flavor Profile

Opulent Napa Cabernet displaying magnificent depth and concentrated dark fruit intensity.
The 2019 Special Selection opens with intoxicating aromas of crushed boysenberry and blackcurrant liqueur, interwoven with cedar shavings and roasted coffee beans. On the palate, waves of concentrated dark fruit cascade across rich, velvety tannins that coat every corner of the mouth. Mid-palate reveals layers of baker's chocolate and vanilla custard, while hints of tobacco leaf add sophisticated earthiness. The finish extends magnificently, with espresso notes lingering alongside persistent dark berry compote. This vintage shows remarkable polish and integration, suggesting excellent cellaring potential through 2035.
🍷 You want to impress at a milestone celebration with a wine that commands attention and respect.
