Always a blend, the 2016 Stratus Red consists of 25% Cabernet Franc, 23% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Syrah, 10% Malbec, 7% Tannat, and 5% Petit Verdot. It has a rich, medium-high intensity nose of dark berry/cherry, blackberry, and oak spice aromas. It's full-bodied and ripe on the palate with nice replays, plus some vanilla accents. Firm tannins are a touch chalky and will reward ageing, while mouthwatering acids keep things juicy. The long finish has vanilla, spice, and dark berry notes. Best enjoyed after 2-3 years in the cellar. Tasted Nov/2019.
