DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
From a blend of 45% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Cabernet Franc, the wine reached 13.32% alcohol and will be aged in 1/3 new, French oak barrels. Offering up classic notes of earth, cedar and cassis, the wine is firm, structured, masculine and tannic. Give this old school wine a decade of age, before it begins to unfurl its secondary characteristics and starts to soften. The finish is fresh, with a nice licorice accent to the crisp, fresh cassis.
Excellent concentration on the nose, which carries on through the palate. The oldest Cabernet Franc vines of the estate go into this wine (making up 17% of the blend), and are around 100 years old. A clear step up from Chapelle, and great quality for such a well-priced wine. They selected heavily to make sure of this, with around 50% first wine, compared to 70% in 2016.
