Classic Bordeaux

Quick tasting note

Bright, fresh and expressive red fruit — Rainier cherry, raspberry, and an exotic top note of dragon fruit and rambutan. Underneath, blueberry, plum and morello cherry pull the fruit darker. High-toned Kona peaberry coffee runs through the whole of it, with a savoury, almost umami hint of fresh morel.
Detailed tasting notes

Color Deep garnet with purple hues

Palate An acid pop lands in the centre of the palate and radiates outward. The mid-palate is quick, then widens into a very full finish of oak, vanilla and bakery spice — a concha coming out of the panadería oven first thing in the morning. Cherry returns at the end, and tense acidity over fine-grained tannin leaves you thirsting for the next sip.

Red and black currants, chalky minerality, flowers, spice, and leather nuances

Winemaker Notes

50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc and 25% Merlot from the organically farmed G2N Vineyard in the Willow Creek District. Four separate lots — Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon in new and in neutral oak, and Cabernet Franc — assembled for lift rather than weight. At 14.1% it is the most immediately drinkable wine in the Maison Mittal cellar, and the hardest to put down.
