This wine has put on weight, thrown off the subtle herbaceous notes detectable last year, and fleshed out its mid-palate. A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc, it exhibits an inky ruby/purple color, a luscious perfume of blackberries, cassis, licorice, spice, and toasty oak, medium to full body, a beautiful texture, a concentrated mid-palate, sweet tannin, and a long, elegant, refined finish. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2025.
