This blend is dominated by deep press fractions of Cabernet Sauvignon and is reminiscent of a "Left Bank" Bordeaux-style wine. Optimum balance and character are achieved through the addition of free-run and press fractions of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. Fine, dense tannins give this wine great structure and long-term ageing potential. The name Magna Praemia is latin for "great rewards."
"An iron fist in a velvet glove."
