A major sleeper of the vintage, this blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is another “best ever” performance. Notes of tobacco leaf, hot rocks, sweet kirsch and black currants are impressively displayed in this medium to full-bodied, velvety textured, very seductive style of wine. Drink it over the next decade.

Spicy lemon aroma, then riper – almost pineapple – fruit on the palate. Soft and broad but just about finishes fresh. (JH)

Not that dark.  Lively and lightly toasted.  Polished and with some real freshness on the finish.  Proper Graves. Though not very dense... please note. (JR)
