2008 tasting - This dark red has a slightly sweet, slightly floral bouquet
coupled to a sweetish flavor wherein the Petit Verdot mutes and sweetens
the Cabernet Franc. The finish is light and dry.
2009 tasting - This purplish red has a spicy, eastern bouquet coupled to a light, fruity, very eastern flavor and a slightly dry aftertaste.
