30% Carignan, 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petit Verdot, 2% Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes:  Bright yet brooding. Up front, it is all fresh and expressive red berries. Then, on the palate, you find touches of herbs and cocoa. It finishes with bright cherry and vivacity.

Food Pairing: It has the backbone for a pairing with grilled meats from lamb to steaks, but would shine with slow-cooked short ribs.
