FROM THE PRODUCERS:"A Bordeaux style blend, made with Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Berry, currant and plum notes dominate the nose and palate, with hints of clove, and slight smokiness in the background. Rich and fruity with soft tannin and great spice, this red is a great all-occasion wine."
