NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This David Arthur Proprietary Red is an intense and complex blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec.On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberry, currant, cassis, and sweet spices intermingle with hints of cedar, violet, and leather. On the palate, a lush and plump texture is balanced by a core of tannins and acidity. Flavors of blackberry, black cherry, coffee, and dark chocolate are supported by a long and lingering finish. This is a well-crafted wine that will further develop in the bottle over the next few years.
