This wears a basic Bordeaux appellation and price, but the winemaker is among the elite, working at second growth...
Simple, juicy, woodsy, easy-drinking red Bordeaux here with plummy dark fruit and a dash of green pepper and wood...
Solid representation of Bordeaux classique, down to earth, emitting scents from ground trampled underfoot, round...

This blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon has an open and fragrant nose with lovely dark fruited aromas of blackberry, black plum, currant, cassis, wood spice, and vanilla with savoury undertones. On the ripe, medium-full bodied, and structured palate it has dark berry, blackberry, leather, and wood spice flavours, with a hint of jammy notes. Fresh acids are juicy and well-balanced, while the structured tannins are youthful. Savoury, earthy, and cocoa notes linger on the long, drying finish. Tasted Nov/2021.
