Written Notes

67% C. Sauvignon, 32% Merlot and 1% C. Franc. It's under 13% alcohol. Displayed a fine intensity of redcurrants, flowery and minty, tobacco leaves, freshness, minerality, fine structure and length. Long and meaty finish. Superb effort. 93-94p.

  • 94p

Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core.  Expressive nose with aroma reminiscent of elderberries and sloe, hints of blackcurrants and aromatic herbs in the background. Discreet spiciness. On the palate rather medium bodied yet with persistent character, excellent length, a very elegant wine with depth.
