Description: | Winemaker NotesThe dark and intense fruit aromas jump out of the glass with ripe plums, blackberries on the vine, and tones of sweet mint. The mouthfeel is full, balanced by gentle acids and rich tannins. Flavors are reminiscent of dark chocolate covered cherries and spicy black pepper. The long finish shows cigar box and cedar spice. A vintage that will age well into the next decade.Blend:74% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit VerdotCritical AcclaimRobert Parker's Wine Advocate - 97ptsIt would be impossible to exaggerate the grandeur and majesty of the overachieving 2015 Arcanum. The blend is 74% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot. This full-bodied wine is mostly defined by its texture that is exceedingly rich and smooth with significant infusions of blackberry, plum, spice, tobacco and cured leather. The wine achieves beautiful balance, yet it remains intense and powerful all the while.Wine Spectator - 93ptsThis shows fine purity to its black cherry, black currant and iron flavors, despite its dense texture and massive tannins. There is freshness, balance and a chewy feel to the finish.James Suckling - 93ptsAromas of lead pencil and currants with blueberries. Medium body, chewy tannins and a savory finish. Needs two or three years to soften. |
