Tasting Notes

Ripe cherry, framboise, hints of pie crust and brioche. Sweet-glazed donuts, dried herbs.

Color Medium garnet with ruby hues

Palate Silky and broad — softer than Cabernet Sauvignon yet fuller than Cabernet Franc. Marshmallow-like mid-palate texture with sneaky tannins that reappear late. Juicy red berries framed by caramel and clove. Drying and herbal finish.

Critic Reviews
  • “A blend of 45% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Franc, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 6% Petit Verdot, aged 20 months in French oak (30% new), the 2023 The Tempo delivers terrific, medium to full-bodied aromas of ripe black cherries, chocolate, graphite, and leafy herbs. It has ripe tannins, integrated acidity, terrific balance, and outstanding length. This fruit-loaded, textured beauty shows impressive character. Drink 2025-2037.”
