Grape Variety

Merlot

Producer

Clos Cantenac SCEA

Medium ruby hue. Pretty, filigree nose with well-defined notes of Victoria plum, black cherry, blackberry, sultana and a reserved, oaky charm (violets, cinnamon and clove) from 50% new and 50% second and third-fill barrels. The palate shows up polished and elegant, a deep swirl of black fruit and crunchy griottes woven alongside potent cassis, vanilla, cedar and spice. There is typical Bordelais damp earth adding an intriguing savoury character. The finish is exceptionally long and flavoursome. 2028-2035–MP
