This special wine is from a singular block on the Paradigm estate. The block matured perfectly and was picked right before the big rains of late October 2010. The wine has a wonderful, silky smooth texture, elegantly balanced tannins and notes of cassis, black currant, spice, mocha and licorice.
Aging Process
20 months in french oak plus another 20 months aging in the bottle
