Des Voigne Cellars 2007 Solea

The 2007 Solea is 46% Cabernet Sauvingon, 26% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, 8% Malbec and 7% Petit Verdot. Boasting lovely aromas of black cherry, black plum, vanilla, and old fashioned root beer, the ripe dark fruit flavors round out the underlying structure of medium-bodied tannins. Although young, Solea is elegantly balanced and smooth textured and will continue to integrate and evolve beautifully with cellar aging.

Suggested pairing: Jimmy McGriff, "Electric Funk"
