Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: This wine is a blends a core of 76% Merlot with 13% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Malbec, 3% Syrah and 3% Cabernet Franc. It has fascinating aromas of currant, espresso, anise and black cherry. Fairly robust with very good aroma replays. It has the stuff to last 2-4 years. My note: Superbly balanced and elegant wine with full-bodied aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant and black plum. Smoky and long on the finish and satisfaction. Food matches: grilled lamb, stuffed veal tenderloin.
