Tasting Notes
The nose of the 2016 vintage offers up notes of black-berried fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry), underpinned by an elegant oakiness with grilled and toasted notes. The chewy, concentrated palate reveals a full-bodied structure which imparts promising length. The reflection of careful craftsmanship and a superb terroir. A seductive, classic wine. Grape Varieties: 90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.
