2017 "The Crucible" Red Blend
Like a luminous pathway of moonlight cast over deep waters, this Right Bank style blend is both generous and focused. Lovely aromatics of plum, rose petal and cocoa. A layered and harmonious palate of rich berry cobbler, warm spice and black tea. Vivid acidity dances with supple tannins to a long and smooth finish. An expressive and inviting wine.
