Extremely deep purple colour. Spicy, pruney nose with some faintly resiny, slightly reductive, sandalwood-cedar notes. Very dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, baked plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, sandalwood-tinged, high acid finish. Try with a rib steak. This blend of 70% Tannat and 30% Cabernet Franc has been aged 80% in tank and 20% in oak barrels for 12 months. It has 13.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. CSPC 343566

TASTING NOTE: This wine is already finely balanced, full of a combination of black fruits and acidity. Behind this fruitiness there are solid tannins, a dry core and a concentrated aftertaste where the Tannat shows well. Drink this ripe, full-bodied wine now.
