(Bordeaux Blend)

Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot,
Cabernet Franc, Malbec

Aging:

40 months French and American oak (20% new)

Tasting Notes:

The 2007 Cuveé  is very similar to our 2006 with a deep concentrated ruby color, and the nose is a sophisticated blend of raspberry, plum, and cedar notes. The mouthfeel is rich and complex flavors of black cherry, ripe plum, minerals, and anise are intertwined with spice and vanilla.The addition of Cab Franc accentuates the spice rack and the Malbec punctuates the lovely fruit component. The finish is exceptional, and flavors of roasted vanilla bean and raspberry sweet tart are accented with well balanced acidity, and soft tannins. Drink now or age worthy. This wine will be perfect with tender meats and sauces, as well as robust pasta dishes. A real treat!
