Tasting Notes

Three varieties, one rendezvous

Each grape keeps its distinct character — unfolding in a dynamic interplay of aromas and flavors.

🍷

The Blend

Cabernet Sauvignon brings structure, Merlot suppleness, and rare continental Vranac a deep, dark southern soul.

🕒

The Patience

At least three years of barrel aging and cellar maturation, then a minimum of two more years in bottle before it leaves the estate.

🍇

The Palate

Dry and full, with robust tannins and elevated alcohol — a rich, evolving tasting experience that rewards a slow table.
