"Very rich, ripe and dramatically textured, this has explosive flavors of blackberry, creme de cassis, dried herb, and smoked meat flavors, enriched by smoky oak. It show the tough, ahrd tannins you often find in low production mountain Cabernets. Made by well-known winemaker, Philippe Melka, it has the structure of a wine that needs age. Give it at least eight years, and could a wine lasts decades."
