Description
"Departure" is defined as the beginning of a journey as well as a deviation from a prescribed course. In this case it is both. For over a decade, Azalea Springs has produced world-class Merlot. This is our first Cabernet Sauvignon. It was produced from the Stagecoach and Rock Cairn Vineyards while our vines near maturity. We are extremely proud of our first foray with this grape due to its dense flavors, dark color and pure, delicious character.
