Francophiles take note. This wine rides the line between porn star enhancement
and a female athlete’s more natural cup size. Forged from Cabernet (both
Sauvignon and Franc), that combine to make a buxom yet restrained wine
reminiscent of the original Bordeaux from which it takes cue… it’s the inspired
addition of our estate Tannat that brings the sizzle, adding a boatload of both
finely textured structure and mouthwatering acidity.
Red fruits, sour cherry and bramble combine with pine forest, wildflower and
saline, making for a wine with endless palate interest. The result is both ample
and food friendly, though a few years of bottle age will bring this baby into it’s
prime-time status.
