Flowers, herbs, licorice, cocoa, and pit fruits define the core of the wine. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, bright, fresh, and almost brisk, with a refined edge to the soft-textured, sweet berries that get even better with their hint of chocolate in the finish. This is going to be delicious on release. The wine blends 80% Merlot, with 20% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2026-2032. 89-91 Pts.

Medium-bodied, round, soft, lush and floral, with sweet black cherries, licorice, dark cocoa and plummy characteristics, if you enjoy exuberant, youthful fruit, you can already enjoy this wine.
