The 2019 The Lovers checks in as 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Syrah, and its deeper ruby/plum hue gives way to a plump, juicy, more forward wine offering lots of red and black currant fruits, notes of tobacco leaf, sweet earth, and graphite, medium to full body, and a rounded, textured, already delicious style on the palate. There's no harm in opening bottles today, yet it has 15-20 years of longevity.

The 2019 The Lovers opens slowly in the glass, delicate and nuanced, with a dusty mix of dried flowers, incense, currants and wild blueberries offset by a hint of wet stone.

The Lovers is a truly seductive blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Syrah that is raised for 21 months in 30-40% new and neutral oak French
