Espresso, dark chocolate, smoke, licorice, wet earth and plums create the core of this wine. Medium-bodied, vivacious, creamy and polished, the wine leaves you with loads of chocolate-covered black cherries, with cocoa in the chalky finish. The wine is a blend of 57% old vine Cabernet Franc and 43% Merlot. Drink from 2024-2035.

There's something a bit wild about this wine, that wants us to listen to its hint of mushrooms, brambles, leather and tobacco. Acidity noticeable but good, calms down later. Quite smooth and silky.

Flowers and earth, along with black cherry and chocolate create the core of this wine. Soft, supple, round and ripe, the wine is fresh, lively and sensuous. Give it up to 5 years before you pulling a cork and it will be a much better wine. 91-93
