84 / C
Tasted by Mike Supple - 22 Jan 2009
Dark ruby core with a pink rim. Wild strawberry and rhubarb aromas are backed by a touch of earth and mocha. Dark plum and cherry fruits surround a sweet herbal note on the palate. Medium acidity with a solid core of ripe tannins. Decanting before serving will definitely bring out the full flavors and aromas. A little hollow on the finish. A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc aged in French oak (30% new, 70% second use) for 12 months.
