Dense and concentrated with fresh ripe black fruits, sweet cassis, smoke, coffee, herbs and tar. Full-bodied and powerful backed round polished tannins and a solid core. Everything is wrapped up with an amazing long mouthwatering finish. This is still very much in its youth and will easily last another two decades. Composed of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petit Verdot, 6% Malbec and 1% Cabernet Franc, aged 20 months in French oak (90% new) with minimal racking (Best 2015-2030) - November, 2012 (JD)
