A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 8% Malbec, 5% Petit Verdot and 1% Carmenère, the 2017 Left Bank was bottled under screw cap. Ripe and dusty aromas float out of the glass with focus and intention. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is clean, expressive and balanced, displaying fine-grained tannins that melt over the mid-palate as flavors of savory herbs and dusty cedar sway in the mouth. It ends with a straightforward and soft umami finish. Just over 30,000 bottles were filled after the wine rested for 21 months in 30% new French oak.
