Sommelier's Notes

A deep, dark garnet hue precedes a lavish bouquet of concentrated blackcurrant, juicy plum, and cedar spice. The palate is full and meticulously structured, featuring dense dark fruit and sophisticated undertones of graphite, tobacco, and dusty baker's chocolate. The tannins are wonderfully filigreed and silky, a direct result of the 'Rutherford Dust' soil, providing immediate pleasure while promising graceful ageing for decades. It is a wine of power and finesse.

Serving & Food Matching

Decanting is highly recommended. Serve cellar temperature (16-18°C). A superb match for:

• Classic Beef Wellington
• Roast Venison Loin with a red wine reduction
• Mature, hard cheeses like Aged Cheddar or Gouda
