The reserve of our Reserves, Octagon is not produced in any year unless the harvest is both superior, and not otherwise allocated to varietal production. Octagon III is based on select lots of superb estate-grown Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Nebbiolo, and presents a lavish and silky palate of bright berry fruit and spice, with earthy, leathery, smoky, and subtly floral undertones, woven together with great finesse. |
