From the producer:

“The 2014 “IX Estate” exhibits a bouquet that marries richness with nuance. The classic black cherry and licorice at the foundation of this wine are threaded together with notes of Provencal herbs and mineral. Fresh botanical, herbal notes and savory bay leaf showcase distinguishing characteristics of Napa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon. The complex flavors are pure and delineated; its immense subtleties are intoxicating. The seamless texture of the 2014 “IX Estate” is so smooth, such that its elegance belies its intensity.”
