Tasting profile (AI-generated)

Structure: full-bodied, high tannin, medium acidity, dry

A structured Oakville Bordeaux blend built around blackcurrant and dark plum, with cedar and mocha notes adding complexity. The Petit Verdot and Malbec contribute depth of colour and a firm tannic backbone, while Cabernet Franc lifts the finish with subtle herbal character. It's a classic Napa blend that rewards a few years of cellaring or a good decant before serving.
