"The grand vin is the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Laurel Glen Vineyard Estate and it’s a regal, balanced, complete wine from this team that offers beautiful minerality as well as notes of crème de cassis, crushed rocks, violets, and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, incredibly elegant and seamless, it’s not a blockbuster and shines for awesome purity and balance. It’s going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and keep for 15-20 years. The 2015 is all Cabernet Sauvignon that was brought up in 55% new French Taransaud barrels, with the balanced in once used barrels." 

"This classically styled wine has pretty opening aromas of black currant, cherry and berry, with a slight tease of vanilla and dark chocolate. High toned and supple on the palate, the tannins are well integrated and structured, with a good tension of acidity." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Very perfumed aromas of blackberry and blueberry creating a jammy palate impression. The acidity in the wine lifts the big complex flavors, with a hint of dark chocolate, giving the wine an unexpected freshness. All culminating in a long finish with pronounced, yet elegant, tannins."
