Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: This rich and subtle wine from the Right Bank of Bordeaux is a blend of 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Expect aromas of red currants, toast and smoky oak. It’s dry, medium full-bodied with fleshy fruit flavors balanced by medium tannins. Drinking well now, this wine will continue to evolve over the next 5-7 years. My note: A well-structured and balanced red with classic notes of cassis and black currant.
