Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
Slightly cooler year, which extended the growing period.
Winemaker Notes
50% Cabernet Sauvignon provides the structure, while the 26% Petite Sirah provides dark intense fruit. The 24% Syrah softens and fills out the wine giving it rounded edges. The Silken's texture is key.
Food Pairing Notes
Classic Ratatouille
