The Roman numeral 23 is an indication of the vineyard age; in the blend is 20% Cabernet planted at the same time. This is stiff and herbal, with brambly, wild raspberry and light cherry fruit and a dusty ash flavor as the tannins fade. Good length and balance. || Dusty scents of cocoa, coconut and sandalwood speak to the barrel aging. The toast and coffee notes overshadow the tart cassis fruit flavor, leading into drying tannins sharpened with firm acidity and a high-toned finish.
