Our flagship Estate Soul of a Lion is a beautifully concentrated wine that offers tremendous elegance. Endowed with exquisite purity and texture, it displays classic Cabernet Sauvignon qualities, including graphite, lead pencil shavings, black currants and ash.
The 2015 Soul of a Lion is a beautifully concentrated wine accompanied by tremendous elegance that incorporates some old world flavors due to the vintage’s characteristics. Endowed with beautiful purity and texture, it has all the standard classic Cabernet Sauvignon flavors that include Graphite, Lead Pencil Shavings, Blackcurrants and Ash. The higher percentage of Cabernet Franc in this vintage gives it a beautiful aroma and an additional elegant component that rounds it up for a very long finish. Drinking surprising well today, we expect it to shut down shortly for a few years just to be re-awakened for long term cellaring.
