From two Inkwell vineyards, plus that of Chapel Hill. Deep purple-crimson, the bouquet more accessible and complex than that of its siblings; there is more texture to the palate, particularly that contributed by oak and tannins, and the savoury/licorice/black chocolate nuances add to the fruit. This is the most complete wine, but I cannot place it above the Chosen House Block.
