WSI97+ A beautiful blending of blue and red fruits: concentrated strawberry, red cherry, blueberry, sweet basil, dried bay leaf, violet, hints of black pepper, a sweet, umami like tomato paste. As it breathes black pepper comes more and more forward. On the palate, everything on the nose carries through, though with a pronounced underlayer of fresh turned earth. This smells and tastes like summer at its peak when all the fruits vegetables are giving you their all. 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Petit Verdot, 22% Syrah, 15% Merlot
