WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Deep, brilliant cherry red color with a purple hue. Expressive, rich and complex nose with a solid core of black berries (blackcurrant, black cherry), spices and wild sage framed by a menthol tone. Harmonious, well-balanced and full-bodied, fine and elegant tannins. The aftertaste is rich and savory with fruity and spicy flavors delivering a vanilla and licorice length.
Blend: 49% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot
TASTING NOTES:
From an estate in the southern Médoc, close to Bordeaux city, this wine is produced by négociant Barton & Guestier. Rich and juicy with vanilla and dark chocolate aromas, the wine is spicy and full of black currants. Age further and drink from 2027.
