crushed chalk and then a silky citric grip

The tannins are silky and long

In its youth

A much earthier mix of red and dark currant

Sloan, Proprietary Red other_regions this blend of 46% CabernetDeep garnet purple colored, the 2014 Proprietary Red needs a little coaxing to reveal slowly unfurling notions of warm black cherries, mulberries, redcurrants and blackberry compote with touches of licorice, tapenade, chargrill and scorched earth. Full bodied, firm, grainy and packed with layers of black fruits and savory flavors, it has a firm, grainy backbone of very ripe tannins and tons of vivacity, finishing very long.
