Current Release

La Muse 2022

A very elegant, well-balanced and silky merlot, full-bodied but sleek and complete. Aromas of cherries, raspberries, violets and cedar meet flavors of red currants, star anise, cloves and dark chocolate. Fine tannins and subtle oak spices last from the mid-palate through a lingering, delicious, cinnamon-spiced finish. The blend contains 6% malbec and 4% cabernet franc. Aged in all-new French barrels. Drinkable now and best from 2032.

La Joie 2022

Broad, mouth-filling, ripe and rich, with dark fruits like blackcurrants and blueberries on velvety tannins. A full body carries generous chocolate and dark spice flavors, showing impressive breadth and a meaty, almost chewy texture. Expands in power on the palate without losing balance, and lingers long in the finish. Made from cabernet sauvignon and lesser portions of cabernet franc, merlot and petit verdot. Drinkable now and best from 2032.

Le Désir 2022

Beautiful fruit and dark spice flavors enjoy great balance and structure in this linear, almost muscular wine. Wonderful blackberries, black licorice, black cherries, blueberry pie, star anise and nutmeg, along with hints of wood char, tobacco leaves, dried cherries and pomegranates, give amazing complexity. Taut in texture, vertical drive, agile and muscular in fine-grained tannins, yet balanced and elegant. Drinkable now and best from 2032.
