Winemaker Notes
The 2019 is a classic Bordeaux blend of estate-grown varietals dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with a supporting cast of Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Ripe and succulent, the wine sports flavors of cassis, currant and black plum shaded with notes of vanilla crème, black licorice, cola and sweet earth. Open textured with smooth tannins and a juicy, inviting finish, this Trilogy will reward cellaring for at least 15 years.
Blend: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Malbec, 10% Petit Verdot, 8% Cabernet Franc
Critical Acclaim
Sweetly spiced nose of cherries, spiced plums, strawberries, vanilla and lavender. Full-bodied with firm, supple tannins and fresh acidity. Juicy, fruity and delicious with pretty spice and floral undertones on the long finish. Sustainable. Better from 2023.
Opens to a nose of blackberries, spiced plum, licorice, fennel and cedar. A real palate-etching red with immense concentration, and a nice line of saline minerality. The tannins are angular and grippy, and the long finish is punctuated by dark chocolate, black currants and graphite. A Cabernet crowd pleaser.
