Blending 85% Merlot with 15% Cabernet Franc produced a wine with truffle, smoke, coffee and black raspberry scents. Silky textures and a sweet, black cherry and stone sensation are found in the wine. theWineCellarInsider.com
Solid berry and currant character with mineral undertone. Full to medium body, with chewy tannins and a medium finish. Tannins are a little austere. jamessuckling.com
Ripe and zesty with a generous volume of fruit and a tight, firm, long finish. Serious wine for ageing. Continues the progression here. Drink 2018-2030. Decanter.com
