Region: France, AOC Bordeaux

Grape variety: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon & Malbec

Tasting notes: Dark ruby with some bricking. Shy nose combining floral scents, dark stone fruits, spice and toast touches. Lovely smooth, ample texture framed by fine tannins. Still reticent with a spicy mid-palate and vegetal finish.

A wine with a beautiful, sustained garnet colour heralding in a pleasing nose of small berried fruits with spicy touches. The generous, well-balanced palate is tautly structured over a carefully managed, well-integrated tannic base. A pleasant Bordeaux with real character, ideal for sharing over a family meal.

Food pairing: This wine will be associated with grilled or roasted meat, duck breast or accompanied by a cheese platter.
