Tasting Notes

80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, on gravel. Deep cherry red. Lifted cherry fruit. Lots of sweet and sour cherry on the palate too. Really juicy and bright and full of life. A little dry and hard in the middle but should come round to something more harmonious. (16+ Points)

Score: 16

This is very long for the appellation with a chocolate and berry character. Medium body with very good tannins and juicy finish. Fun to taste. 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Franc.

Score: 88 - 89

Shows drive and energy, with racy linzer torte and blackberry fruit stitched with anise and bergamot notes. Delivers good cut through the finish. Very solid.

Score: 89 - 92
