Offers subtle savory, tobacco and singed cedar notes that add range, with a savory echo that leaves a mouthwatering feel in the end. Built to cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2025 through 2040. - James Molesworthb- Wine Spectator (March 2022), 95 idreviewinproduct idreviewinproduct idreviewinproduct
