2007 Trevin
Trevin is our flagship Bordeaux blend and the “best of the best”. The Tres Vins (three wines) of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc meld into a seamless, rich and robust, complex wine that gains even more sophistication with additional years of cellaring. Deep and dark, full of garnet and maroon color and a depth that shouts that this is a serious wine – Claret in color and composition. The nose is a cornucopia of blackcurrant, cedar, olive tapenade, milk chocolate and garden sage. The first sip reveals a velvety texture that brings flavors of blackberry, cassis, black cherry and plum, along with a nice thread of dried raspberry and minerality. Very layered and very balanced, with fine, dusty tannins, good food-loving acids and beautiful structure. The finish is long, lingering and layered with reminders of black berries, exotic spice, sarsaparilla and a hint of vanilla bean. After 36 months in barrel and 9 months in bottle at release, this is still a youngster and will continue to gain style with aging. Pair with Prime Rib Roast with roast potatoes, Grilled Squab, Wild mushroom risotto.
