A cascade of aromatics starts with a bright floral note (T rose oil) in the bridge of the nose, then descend through a mingling of cassis and blackberry, with a hint of barrel toast and crush graphite. A sense of ying yang defines the 2013 Blueline Estate Cabernet. One of the most deeply concentrated vintages of Blueline Cab we have crafted, yet exhibiting a strong presence of nervy minerality in the back mid palate, providing lift and brightness to counter the overall richness. An incredibly tight weave of refined tannins hold the center core firmly in place, while wrapped with a lush exterior of black fruit. Blackberry bramble and cassis are infused with a crushed stone character that brightens the richness across the palate and lingers for a long arching finish.

Cellar Selection. This calmly seductive wine has a deep, dark color, absolutely gorgeous fruit, wood smoke and baking spice aromas and a gentle texture that lets all the berry, black-cherry and pomegranate flavors soak into the taste buds. While quite full-bodied, it's easy on the tongue but does have an extra fine-grained wrapping of tannin to keep it firm. Best from 2020 through 2030.

Aromas of violet, black licorice, kirsch and spicy blackberry give this plenty of flavor, depth and persistence as the tight focus holds through the finish, gaining tannic traction and leading to a mouthwatering, puckery aftertaste. Drink now through 2028. 1,000 cases made.

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Blue Line (86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot and the rest Malbec) is rich, with medium to full body, the classic tobacco leaf and crème de cassis notes, and again, very good purity and length. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.
