TASTING NOTES:
Stewed-blackberry, pine, black-tea and olive-stone aromas on the nose. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Rich style with a warm finish. Yet, the lightly green olive and spice turn up the interest. Drink or hold.

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Indigo – ai represents the color indigo in the Japanese language, an element used in textile dyeing for thousands of years. Indigo is a rare commodity, just as the wine that bears its name, and with aging, both evolve and soften in texture and expression. Selected from the Napa Valley estate’s most superb blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon and enhanced by complementary Bordeaux components, ai is the boldest expression of the estate’s vineyard potential.
