Tasting Note

A familiar nose of pedigree, the wine opens with aromatics of ripe raspberry, blackcurrant, cigar box and a hint of fresh sandalwood shavings and Herbs de Provence—mysteriously intriguing at first but evolving into a thoroughbred with time and air. Dense and layered on the palate, an immediate note of mixed berry strudel topped with fresh cream, fresh black raspberry and soft tannins akin to baking chocolate transition to a finish of both nuance and concentration. Still young, the wine will continue to evolve gracefully while retaining its luscious quality and classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon nature.

Product Notes

On the palate, it is perfectly bold and lavishly layered, showcasing hints of sun-drenched blackcurrant, warm spice and dark chocolate. This robust Cabernet Sauvignon boasts bright acidity and firm tannins, culminating in a lingering, well-structured finish. Its distinctive mercury dime label adds a flair of refinement. A superbly balanced wine for any collector's roster or a special occasion, it's a rich indulgence that promises an unforgettable taste journey.
