40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Cabernet Franc, 19% Ma
$55
per bottle
The Lineage is a rich, complex Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot that is sure to impress. Dark and mysterious with notes of cigar box, cacao and mocha balanced with olallieberry, pomegranate, black cherry and blackberry. Notes evocative of smores on a cool night. Cumin, coriander and cinnamon dance on the palate with notes of dark chocolate truffle. A finish of freshly steeped English Breakfast tea. Ideally enjoyed on a friends' getaway to a cabin in the snow paired with a braised short rib dinner and good conversation. Drink now or will age beautifully for the next 6-8 years.
