"(76% cabernet sauvignon, 12% merlot, 9% cabernet franc and 3% petit verdot) Superripe aromas of black fruits and roast coffee; just this side of porty. Sweet, lush and deep, with flavors of blackberry, bitter chocolate, spices and minerals. Quite firmly built, even a bit youthfully austere. Finishes with ripe, building tannins and a note of menthol. This boasts excellent energy and grip."
