With the influence of Phillipe Melka in the cellar (and all that his experience brings from Chateau Haut-Brion, Dominus, and Chateau Petrus), this Bordeaux blend is an age-worthy blockbuster.
Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is similarly ruby/purple-colored and yields loads of cassis, blackcurrants, charcoal, graphite, and cedar aromas and flavors. Like the Red Wine, it's structured, tannic, and concentrated, and needs to be hidden in the cellar. Maturity: 2022-2037." Apr 2019
Antonio Galloni's Vinous: "Bright, dark ruby-red. Blackberry, licorice, wild herbs and bitter chocolate on the nose, with some complicating savory notes. Fine-grained, glossy and super concentrated, boasting bulletproof flavors of dark berries, bitter chocolate, cocoa powder and sexy Taransaud spices complicated by a subtle savory quality. This very dark, brooding wine is still an infant but already delivers noteworthy sex appeal owing to its velvety claret-like texture. Finishes with big, sweet tongue- and tooth-dusting tannins and terrific mounting length. Drinking window: 2023-2032." Nov 2018
Winery: "Winery: "Seductive dark fruit aromas of dried fig, black cherry and cassis are infused with notes of mint, espresso, black olive and tobacco. Licorice, bitter dark chocolate, blackberry reduction and spice slowly give way to more earth-driven flavors of sage, wet earth, gravel and char. The wine is powerful and seamless in texture with densely-packed tannins and a graphite-like minerality, drawing out the palate to a rich and long-lasting finish."
