The winery's premier wine showcases “Block One” Champoux vineyard fruit: about two thirds Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cab Franc and the rest Petit Verdot. A big, fleshy wine, it shows rich, plummy fruit and swirling streaks of licorice, mineral and preserves. Young and somewhat blocky, it's dominated by cassis and a broad swath of dusty tannin. Has slightly sweeter fruit and a more roasted character than the Champoux designate.
