Dark and liberally toasty, but with a pure beam of cassis and blackberry fruit as well. The rich finish lets tar, licorice and tobacco hang on, with velvety tannins adding length.

The 2007 Carignan Single Vineyard contains 5% Carmenere and 5% Malbec with the Carignan sourced from vines over 60 years of age. Medium purple in color, it gives up an earthy nose with hints of balsamic, Asian spices, tobacco, and assorted black fruits. This leads to a medium-bodied wine with layered spicy fruit, intense flavors, good balance, and a medium-long finish. It has 1-2 years of aging potential but can be approached now through 2019.

A slightly old-school style, offering hints of game and cedar that quickly give way to supple mulled cherry, linzer torte and spice notes. The mature finish lets fine-grained tannins glide through easily, while nicely integrated acidity helps add length.
