winemaker's notes:

Ferrari-Carano presents its finest blend of the five classic Bordeaux varietals--Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc-- from the best selections of our vineyards in Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys. Aptly named "Tresor" for "treasure," the grapes are hand harvested from dry-farmed, low yielding vines primarily on our mountain vineyards. Delicious aromas of Bing cherries, blueberry preserves and an herbal, black tea leaf nuance combine with an elegant mid-palate of fresh-picked berry and roasted mocha notes. With a full bodied and richly-textured tannin profile, this wine's upfront silkiness and roundness make for a delicious selection now and will drink well for 7-10 years.

critical acclaim:

"This is Ferrari-Carano's most upscale wine, a blend comprised of all five of the famous Bordeaux varieties. It’s as lush and intricate as almost anything out of Napa, with sumptuous blackberry, black currant and cedar flavors. The giveaway that it’s Sonoma comes in the herbaceousness and slightly greener tannins. Now–2013."

Wine Enthusiast

"A supple, harmonious effort. Full-bodied, showing ripe, fleshy currant, black cherry and plum flavors, with spicy, herbal, cedary notes. Charming in its own way, this is graceful and balanced, complex and subtle, with a long, full finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2016. 4,000 cases made."
