"Dark plums, mocha, cloves and sweet, exotic spices inform the Merlot-based 2010 High Fidelity. Here it is the relatively high presence of Cabernet Franc that gives the wine much of its aromatic nuance and sheer presence. This voluptuous, dark wine needs a few years in the cellar, but it is pretty delicious, even today. In 2010 the blend is 54% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot."
