Tasting Notes: An Old World-styled, cool-climate Meritage blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc that draws inspiration from Bordeaux and delivers a nice balance of dark fruit, vegetal and oak flavours and aromas. Nutmeg and dried herbs add depth to the feminine nose while the dry palate is made memorable due to lingering spice and supportive, dusty tannins.
 Drink now-2018.
