Only available in magnums, the 2019 The Ultimate is composed of 62% Cabernet Franc and 38% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple colored, it needs considerable coaxing to unlock fragrant notions of fresh black and red cherries, warm cassis and ripe plums, plus hints of pencil lead, Indian spices and crushed rocks. Full bodied, it is super concentrated in the mouth with firm, grainy tannins to support and seamless freshness, finishing long and multilayered.
Sweet blueberries, crème de cassis, spring flowers, incense, iron, and baking spice are just some of the nuances in the 2019 Red Blend The Ultimate Debate, and it's full-bodied, dense, and massive on the palate, while somehow staying light on its feet and graceful, with no sensation of weight or heaviness. Possessing incredible extract, concentration, and layers of sweet fruit, as well as ripe tannins and a great finish, it's a decadent Napa Valley red blend that will evolve for 20 years or more.
