Product Description
LP96 "A blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot, and 4% Merlot, the 2009 Continuum was made with 82% of the fruit from Pritchard Hill and the remainder from Diamond Mountain, Mt. Veeder, and St. Helena. It is deep garnet-colored and glides gracefully out of the glass with notions of warm cassis, blackberry preserves, and kirsch, plus suggestions of pencil shavings, unsmoked cigars, cumin seed, and cast-iron pan. Full-bodied, the palate is packed with muscular black fruits, supported by firm, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with loads of mineral and earth layers." LPB for TWI Jun 2023
