You definitely get the Merlot here. 67% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and the rest Cabernet.
2016 an excellent vintage. This still needs more cellaring.
The mouth entry is round, lush & velvety. Fruits lead mid toned but nice blackberries, plum, strawberries cherries, raspberries and a touch of black raspberries. Dark chocolate, mocha, dark, rich, slightly sweet forest floor, light fresh tobacco, excellent softly layered baking spices-clove, nutmeg, cinnamon & vanillin, hints of granite, red cola/licorice. Beautiful, dark, red florals, red roses petals, near perfect acidity, excellent balance/tension/structure with an elegant finish that lasts nearly two-minutes and falls evenly on fruits & beautiful earth. — 4 months ago
1.5 hour decant(little fine sediment). A striking dark magenta color. On the nose: Inviting notes of dark berries, sandalwood, herbaceous, smoked meat, potting soil. Taste: silky, layered, balanced wine with dark plum/cherry, dried herbs, spice, and a cedar/mocha java lingering long finish. YUM!! — 2 months ago

56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 13% Petit Sirah, 7% Syrah, 5% Petit Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. Delicious wine and consulting wine maker for Screaming Eagle! This is my favorite flavor profile for a red! Tar, blackberry, dark cherry, black olives, smoke, white pepper, bitter dark chocolate, black strap molasses, graphite, eucalyptus, and mild vanilla. Medium tannins, medium acidity, with a nice long finish! — 3 years ago

Punches well above its weight…red fruit aromatics and palate with density and heft that makes this feel like a Friday night wine — 4 years ago

tangy and brash. Apple and wet cut grass. Zingy. A bit one note — 23 days ago
