Tasting Note:November 10, 2017

Second of the Lamborn Family Vineyard wines at the Great Falls Wine Outlet this Friday. Deep ruby red with a reserved nose. Notes of mint, dried herbs and dark red berries. Heavy tannins (8/10) and full bodied. Layered palate with cocoa, blackberries, cinnamon, tons of dark gravel and might even have a touch caramel. Very interesting, might just be the sweet spices coming through strongly. Lots of finesse and long finish. Will definitely benefit from a few years in the bottle.


Made up of 100% estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon from Howell Mountain. Generally aged in around 30% to 35% new French oak.
