Critic reviews
"The rich and crowd pleasing 2018 Clementine, a blend of Cabernet/Merlot/Malbec, delivers lovely purity of cassis, violet, Kalamata olives and inky fruit aromas with attractive generosity and toasty vanilla bean oak in support. Punchy and intensely youthful, it delivers a mouth-filling core of dark fruits in a plush, juicy and ripe package. Mouthcoating tannins provide adequate support for a finish of reasonable length."

"Aromas of wet slate and black fruit with blackcurrants, some leaves and violets, as well as forest wood. Complex and so youthful. The palate has a very supple, defined, layered and fresh feel with dark-plum and blackcurrant flavors set in fine tannins. A blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, malbec, petit verdot and cabernet franc. Drink over the next decade. Screw cap."
