The wine

This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Merlot expresses notes of blackcurrant lifted by floral touches; can be aged for several decades.

About the Producer Futo Estate

Futo wines was created in 2002, when Tom and Kyle bought the Oakford vineyard which was created in the 1980s. It is made up of 25 parcels, the terroirs of which are distinctly different. The vines are planted for the most part with Cabernet Sauvignon, with some Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Merlot. This domain produces rich and expressive terroir-driven wines; they are at once structured and fresh with good aging potential.
