Winemaker Notes

Still in its youth, this wine reveals extraordinary depth and finesse beginning with rich cassis and blackberry aromas that are warmly blanketed in notes of toffee and vanilla. Savory aromas of rosemary,truffles, and cocoa powder reward those who linger over the bouquet.

Take a sip, and discover a core of dark berry, cassis, and cherry fruit flavors amid notes of vanilla, dark chocolate, and espresso. Silky,supple tannins carry this wine into a long, fruity and gratifying finish.

Enjoy the 2004 CASK 23 with a prime rib roast with Cabernet jus or with venison chops with blackberry compote.
