60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Petit verdot
An intense purple robe with deep violet reflections heralds the vitality of this vintage. The bouquet unfolds with both subtlety and complexity, balancing elegant oak notes with vibrant fruit. Nuances of grilled tarragon, chocolate, blackcurrant leaf, red plum, and cherry intermingle gracefully.
On the palate, the wine is juicy and lively, carried by smooth, finely textured tannins that create a velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering, leaving elegant traces of red fruits, spice, and delicate peony petals.
