2022 Fortunate Son The Diplomat

Made with the idea of a 21st century claret and based on 66% Cabernet Sauvignon and 34% Merlot, the 2022 The Diplomat was puncheon fermented and aged 32 months in 100% new French oak. It's beautifully textured and forward, with terrific purity in its darker raspberry and redcurrants intermixed with toasted spices, savory flowers, and sweet tobacco. It's beautifully balanced, ripe, pure, and medium to full-bodied. Drink this any time over the coming 10-12 years. Drink 2025-2037.
