Description

Deep garnet in the glass, this Merlot-led blend opens with a lifted nose of ripe red currants, liquorice and crushed blackcurrant leaf, with violet and a twist of black pepper adding lift and perfume. On the palate, juicy plum joins hints of worn leather and savoury, earthy notes, giving real depth and a satisfyingly layered finish. The structure is firm but graceful, with soft, supple tannins that keep things approachable. Delicious now, it will also reward a little patience.

A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, from vines averaging 40 years old. Planted on clay, limestone and sandy soils, they give fruit of concentration and freshness, with the clay lending body and the limestone a streak of vibrancy.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux, one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, is located in southwestern France and is celebrated for its exceptional wines. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. It is particularly renowned for its red wines, primarily blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, offering rich, complex flavours and excellent ageing potential. Notable sub-regions include Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Bordeaux also produces exquisite white wines, both dry, from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and sweet, from the Sauternes and Barsac areas. The region's unique terroir, combined with centuries-old winemaking traditions, results in wines of unparalleled quality and distinction. Bordeaux remains a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking world-class wines and a rich viticultural heritage.
