A blend predominately of Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petite Verdot, the 2018 The Mark sports a deep garnet-purple color and charges out of the gate with notions of cassis, wild blueberries, Morello cherries and minted dark chocolate plus nuances of underbrush and pencil shavings. The full-bodied palate is packed with black fruit and earthy layers, supported by a firm backbone of grainy tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing long with a lively skip in its step. 150 cases were made.
