Blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Medium-high intensity nose is rich and concentrated with aromas of ripe dark currant, dark plum, and savoury earth aromas with touches of wood, cassis, and herbs. It's medium-to-full bodied on the palate with flavours of black cherry, dark berry, plum, blackberry, currant, and cassis alongside subtle savoury earth and spice, plus spearmint notes. It has fresh, balanced acidity and well-structured tannins that have a subtle chalky grip. Very good length with black cherry and hints of mineral on the finish. Tasted Apr/2021.
Fruity, bright, and dare I say, cheerful right bank red Bordeaux. Medium-bodied, this has a supple texture, nearly invisible oak and juicy red fruit. Lovely wine for summer drinking. No need to age, its at it peak now. Tasted Aug 2021.
