Paying homage to a badger that once roamed the Kinhaven Estate, The Bossy Badger is as bold in character as its namesake. This Bordeaux-style blend is silky and sultry, with a broad, plush palate framed by fine-grained tannins and lifted by generous acidity. Dark and expressive, it opens with notes of ripe blackberries and violets, unfolding into earthy hints of sassafras root and the gentle spice of Earl Grey tea. A touch of dark cocoa lingers on the finish, adding depth and allure to this structured yet approachable wine.
