The wine is 86 % cabernet sauvignon, with 7 % merlot, 4 % petit verdot, 2 % cabernet franc and 1 % malbec. The cost is about $160-$180 a bottle.
Experts says:
International Wine Cellar: Good full ruby. Roasted black raspberry, blackberry, spicecake, licorice, minerals and nutty oak on the nose.
The Wine Spectator: Bordeaux-like in its structure and balance, showing cedary oak, dusty berry, dried currant and mineral, with hints of herb and sage. The flavors firm up on the finish, and this is rich and intense without being heavy. Needs decanting. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Best from 2009 through 2015.
Price: $159.95 for 750 ml bottle
