Blended with smaller percentages of Merlot, Cab Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec, it sings in robust red and black cherry and currant, as well as more luxurious waves of chocolate and vanilla. There's a forwardness to the texture, making for a wine that's both big and happy. \u003cstrong\u003eWine Enthusiast 91 Points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trione","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948851687471,"sku":"C0EE306016CSL","price":66.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/trioneblock21lbl.jpg?v=1771484768","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/trione-cabernet-sauvignon-block-21-2011","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
