Wine Advocate

A barrel sample blended of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, the 2016 M by Marciano is very deep purple-black in color and opens with exuberant crme de cassis, blueberry pie and plum preserves notes plus touches of Black Forest cake, spice box and lilacs. Full, rich and seductive, it has a firm, velvety frame and long, mineral-laced finish. 400 cases are expected to be made. -Lisa-Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate
