This distinctive wine, made from dried Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot fruit, reveals a dense ruby/purple/garnet color, and a big, sweet, toasty nose filled with aromas of melted asphalt, black currants, damp earth, and plums. Rich, full-bodied, and chewy, this is a singularly styled wine which, to my palate, is successful. It is not for everyone, but for serving with full-flavored dishes, or at the end of a meal, it is an intriguing and commendable effort. Moreover, it should drink well for 10-12+ years.
