✩✩✩✩+ Four Star+ The Corley Family made impressive Cabernets and blends in 2012. The 2012 Proprietary Red is a fleshy, rich, complex blend. It is full bodied and intensely flavored, with cassis, black currant, cooked beef, spicy oak, vanilla, cherry aromas/flavors. Very long, mildly tannic finish. Excellent. Ronn Wiegand, Restaurant Wine, Fall 2015
Winemaker Notes
The wine is deftly balanced on the palate introducing light, spicy accents and
hints of chocolate. A full-bodied, age worthy texture with moderate tannins makes way
for a long and lingering finish.
