The wine is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, employing traditional winemaking techniques that include fermentation in stainless steel and aging in oak barrels to enhance its complexity and depth. The tannin structure is well-integrated, providing a smooth and balanced finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as grilled steak, lamb, or a rich mushroom risotto.

“There are black pepper, cherry and chocolate vibes to start here. They lead to a palate that's big but surprisingly fresh thanks to a lift of tangy acidity, which brightens fruit and softens tannins. It's no wallflower, but its power is reined in, allowing the fruit and site character to shine. Drink now and over the next seven to eight years.”
