50% Merlot; 43% Cabernet Sauvignon; 7% Cabernet Franc. Wisps of euca-lyptus are joined in this wine's attractive aromas by suggestions of red cherries, woodsy spice and creamy oak. Fleshy and full in texture, but given reasonable balance by bright acidity, the wine is both weighty and somewhat angular at the same time, and it will need a bit of cellar time.
