"It's fair to call this a junior version of Lancaster's more expensive, superb Bordeaux-style wines. Like them, it's rich in black currant and cedar flavors, and quite tannic, a wine that needs a few years to come around. Three-quarters Cabernet Sauvignon, one quarter Merlot. Extremely limited availability with only 1,700 cases produced."
