32 % Merlot, 27 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 18 % Malbec, 11.5 % Cabernet Franc and 11.5 % Petit Verdot aged in 100 % new French oak (225ℓ) for 13.5 months.
Black fruits and spicy aromatics fill the first impression. Headily scented cedar wood nuances are offset by lashings of blackcurrant and Morello cherries. The nose shows all the underpinnings of the expressive Bordeaux varieties and invites further exploration. This is a multifaceted wine that shows powerful development after decanting.
The aromas follow through seamlessly onto the palate and are complemented by polished tannins that lend texture and structure to a wine of immense complexity. This wine is both elegant and refined and exudes class in all aspects – culminating in a sophisticated finish that lingers.
