Professional Scores

The Conjurerer is a Bordeaux blend that leads with Cabernet Sauvignon and sees 25% new French oak—a blend of savoury aromatics and dusty minerality with plenty of red florals. There's ample red fruit on the palate, sweetened a touch by the oak. Turning savoury, smoky blood orange flavours are lifted by dried desert scrub on the finish. Drink 2024 through 2030.
