The 2018 Aurora is made up of 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot, aged 28 months in 100% new French oak barrels. On entry the wine is savory with vanilla bean, dark red fruits, and aged prosciutto. It's then broad, fleshy, and full-bodied with spiced plum and caramel and subtler notes of dark chocolate and leather. The tannins are supple and silky and provide the foundation for a lingering finish. It's a crowd pleaser for fans of Checkerboard Aurora. Only 300 cases
