64% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Cabernet Franc with maturation in barrel for 12 to 15 months of which one third are new.

"Delicate florality to this, smells wonderful, bursting with flowers and black fruits - incredibly welcoming. Lovely acidity on the palate, you can feel this is lively with great energy and drive pushing the red fruit flavours across the palate. The tannins are soft but they are mouth coating and really do mask a lot of what is going on right now. A big mouthful but with brightness and verve underneath. Lovely long length and good persistency and freshness. One to seek out and hold on to. 93" Decanter
