What do you really desire? Something run-of-the-mill, or something that pushes the boundaries and defies conventions? Think outside the box. Answer us now, or else. We mean it.
Get your head out of the gutter, we’re talking about wine here. Introducing BDXSM, another wine from the Tank team that takes a classic (in this case, a Bordeaux blend) and transcends the boundaries of everything you think you know about wine from the Napa Valley.
With sensually striking label artwork by René Garza, this bottle challenges your expectations, and commands attention before opening it up, emerging to you as an exploration of pleasure and dark sophistication. In the glass, this wine unveils itself as a deep maroon hue, hinting at the depth of desire that awaits your palate. The nose presents a seductive symphony of blackcurrant, cassis, baking spice, and a touch of cedar, heightening your senses to a carnal realm previously unvisited.
Ready to dive deeper? We’re not waiting for your answer. BDXSM takes command with prominent and balanced tannins with a firm, yet velvety grip that envelops your palate. With an exciting interplay of dark cherry, spiced plum, marjoram, bay leaf, and tobacco, this wine transcends the ordinary, taking you on a journey that intermingles suspense and desire with each sip.
Crafted from a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Malbec, the majority of the Cabernet was sourced from one of our faves, Siletto Vineyard in San Benito County. The rest of the grapes were sourced from vineyards so exclusive in the Sonoma and Napa Valleys, that we had to keep them a secret, but that doesn’t stop them from asserting their dominance on your taste buds. These grapes were meticulously de-stemmed and cold-soaked in stainless steel and matured in the embrace of French Oak until bottling in November 2021.
BDXSM is an invitation to surrender to the pleasures of the palate and take a journey into the realms of desire and curiosity that linger long after the last drop.
