The heady aromatics demand your attention. Scents of blackberry and vanilla come through clearly on the nose. Rich and Deep. Black current and spicy clove overtones combine in the glycerin like mid palate. Well integrated soft tannins and a hint of citrus highlight the finish.

92% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon from Pepper Bridge, Pheasant Run, and Seven Hills Vineyards.

Previous vintage notes: Wine Spectator 90 Points -- A blackberry nose with cedar and vanilla notes fills the senses. Bright black cherry flavors with nuance of chocolate and white pepper come through in a polished framework. Fine grained tannins with sweet spices provide a lingering finish.
