"A blend that consists of 30–40% merlot and cabernet franc, with a touch of malbec, petit verdot, carménère, then the balance is of cabernet sauvignon. A complex motif! The wine is complex, too, yet sleek and elegant in the same statement. Almost a kind of pinosity in texture and weight, though fine, silty tannins shape things long and to a fine, succulent point. Dark cherry, brambly blackberries, a lick of toasty clove and cinnamon, undergrowth and truffle savouriness underlying. A subtle, saline and graphite minerality makes landfall, too. Finesse, in spades."
