Classic, Layered, Rich, Structured
Black Currant, Huckleberry, Mint, Mocha, Vanilla
Rich fruit aromas of huckleberry, Bing cherry and black currant. Undertones of mint, mocha and vanilla and violets are enticing in this rich blend.
This vintage Elevage is a classic: seamlessly integrating rich tannins with great complexity and depth, it is a wine that can be consumed young or can be aged for 15 to 20 years. The front palate of this wine is rich and deeply textured. The mid palate is round and the tannins firmly structure with a long, balanced finish.
