Tasting Notes:
Ripe plum, cassis and blackberries are complemented by baking spices from the French and American oak. Subtle tobacco leaves extend into a soft and plush finish. - Elizabeth DeLouise-Gant, Winemaker
Vintage:
2015 was a vintage of extremes and was amongst the earliest vintages in many years. Spring arrived early and kick-started vine growth, resulting in an advanced harvest timetable. A cold wet spell interfered with flowering thereby reducing the crop size. The small berries ripened early and yielded concentrated wines.
