Details
A classic Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Intriguing aromas of clove, sandalwood and fresh blackcurrant are followed by a velvety smooth palate brimming with ripe berry fruit and well supported by subtle tannins and gentle oak.
Colour: deep red with an intense and brilliant hue.
Aroma: sandalwood, cloves, fresh blackcurrant and dark bramble fruit.
Flavour: ripe tannins, full sweetness, clean intense blackberries and spice lingering, elegant and balanced with mouth-filling complexity on the finish. A classic blend in the style we have been making since 1989.
Ideal with rich food and red meat dishes.
Enjoy now, but the classic structure will allow the wine to mature well for at least ten years.
