About This Wine

This flagship wine is made from the best Cabernet Sauvignon barrels of the vintage and is distinguished by its extremely fine, velvety tannins. It is aged in French oak giving the wine notes of vanilla, chocolate, espresso, and spice.

Tasting Notes

  • Aroma of cassis, blackberry compote, blackcurrant, and plum
  • Taste of vanilla, roasted vanilla bean, espresso crema and toasty oak spice
  • Subtle sweet tobacco hints meld with the wine's velvety, concentrated core, culminating in an elegant, persistent finish

Food Pairing

Grilled steak, roasted lamb, or Colorado lamb chops
