This bold and refined blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot is a dry red wine with a distinct personality. It opens with generous aromas of ripe dark fruits (blackberries, sour cherries), followed by an elegant flavor of aromatic plants, delicate spices, cocoa and minerality. On the palate, the wine displays a beautiful balance: the Merlot is soft and round, while the Cabernet Franc delivers structure, energy, and depth. Fine tannins, well-integrated acidity, and a long finish with hints of smoke complete the experience.

Medals and awards:

James Suckling - 91 points: "This cabernet franc-merlot cuvee is light-years removed from any kind of Bordeaux imitation. Vibrant blackcurrant fruit and aromas of violets pull you into the medium-bodied palate that starts so bright and polished, but then develops a touch of greenness. A bit abrupt in the slightly dry finish. Drink from release."
