About the wine
Exuding a striking and intense deep purple hue, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon unveils captivating aromas of velvety cocoa, luscious blackberry, fragrant violet, and alluring spice. This wine embodies opulence and opulence and opulence, boasting profound dark fruit flavors, harmoniously counterbalanced by hints of succulent raspberry, delectable maraschino cherry, creamy vanilla, and a subtle suggestion of star anise. The conclusion is a tapestry of silkiness, lavishness, and captivating aroma, elegantly adorned with impeccably harmonized and seamlessly integrated velvety tannins.
This limited production wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the fruit was hand-harvested between September 18th and October 5th. Grapes were fermented on the skins and underwent extended maceration for an average of 38 days to lend complexity and depth to the wine before being racked to new, tight-grained, medium and medium-plus toast French oak barrels for 19 months of aging. Only our best barrels from Ermitage, Taransaud, and Demptos were selected for this wine.
