Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Deep garnet in appearance. The complex bouquet develops aromas of fresh ripe fruits. Round and pleasing from first sip, the wine is full-bodied on the palate. Elegant and fresh in equal measure, delivering spicy, fruity notes and lovely, savory length.
Blend: 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc

Excellent concentration of fruit and tannins in this wine with full body, round and silky tannins and a fresh finish. Really impressive.

In most of France, wines are named by their place of origin and not by the type of grape (with the exception of Alsace). Just like a red Burgundy is by law, always made of Pinot noir, a red Bordeaux is a blended wine composed mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Depending on the laws of the village from which the grapes come, the conditions of the vintage and decisions of the winemaker, the blend can be further supported by Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot and in rare cases, Carmenere. So popular and repeated has this mix of grape varieties become worldwide, that the term, Bordeaux Blend, refers to a wine blended in this style, regardless of origin.
