The 2015 Mystae is a blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, 7% Malbec and 4% Petit Verdot, raised in 40% new oak and 60% second use barrels (both French and American). It's cedary on the nose, with menthol accents to the cassis fruit, while on the palate, it's full-bodied and creamy. Hints of licorice and violets add nuance on the long, plush finish. There's plenty of concentration here, with yields held under two tons per acre.

Composed of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, 8% Malbec and 6% Petit Verdot, the 2013 Mystae has a medium garnet-purple color, opening with notes of red currants and black cherries with touches of wild blueberries, plums, spice cake, bay leaves and pencil shavings. Medium-bodied and delicately played in the mouth, the black berry and earthy flavors are framed by soft, fine-grained tannins and refreshing acidity, finishing long and spicy.
