Winemaker's Notes: Each year, the CBC team selects the best wine to be bottled as our Ascendance. For 2007, we’ve crafted a blend of 80% Malbec and 20% Petit Verdot. This is a powerful and tannic wine that has a spicy, cedary mouthfeel and a lingering finish. The wine breaks our house style mold and has a brooding seriousness that belies our party wine image. Something different and something fun. This wine will cellar into 2012! Enjoy!
