A polished Napa Valley red blend with aromas of black cherry, plum, cassis, and a touch of cedar, herbs, and tobacco.

The palate is medium- to full-bodied, showing ripe dark fruit, supple tannins, and a smooth, balanced finish. It has the approachable, early-drinking feel of a well-made Bordeaux-style blend, with enough structure to keep it interesting.

Serve with grilled steak, mushroom risotto, or roasted lamb.
