2021 ORIN SWIFT PAPILLON
"Still not bottled at the time I tasted it, the 2021 Papillon Red Wine is a five-variety Bordeaux blend (Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot) that spends 13 months in 44% new oak. While not that complex, it does offer up bold cherry and cassis aromas on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied and velvety, with a long, almost zesty finish." Joe Czerwinski Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 90 points 91-93 points Drink 2024-35

A dark, winey style, with linzer torte and blackberry confiture notes that feel rather steeped, as licorice, mocha and sweet tobacco notes fill in on the polished finish. For fans of the more obvious style. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2031. 18,400 cases made.
