Expect to find deep aromas of cassis, black cherry, incense, dark chocolate, caramelized oak, toffee, and the Buoncristiani signatures of balance, depth on the mid-palate, and a lengthy persistent finish. A precise amount of Malbec was carefully folded into the final blend to add complexity and depth to the profile. Twenty-seven months aging in 80% new French oak barrels rounded out the palate even further, while adding more texture, aroma and flavor.

The appellation 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is rock star stuff, offering a ripe, textured, fruit-loaded yet balanced style as well as classic notes of cassis, blackberries, lead pencil shavings, and hints of tobacco and herbs. A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec, and 1% Petit Verdot, it’s well worth seeking out and is going to have 10-15 years of prime drinking. There are 680 cases produced.
