Vanilla, spices, ripe blackcurrant, cooked forest fruits and pâtisserie notes come together to create a mellow, warm bouquet. This is a supple wine, smooth with a juicy acidity. More mellow flavours shine on the palate, which is fine in texture and complex with multiple layers of flavour. It is an elegant blend of 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Sauvignon grown on 30-year-old vines, displaying finesse and some potential for aging. Fermentation was followed by a long maceration on skins and maturation in oak for 24 months in one-year-old barrels.
