Marvellously chunky and rustic with drying tannins, hints of soapy notes, it is clear the Petit Verdot component at 17% is pulling it’s
weight considerably and might need a few years to relax, this is further
complemented by 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 8% Malbec and 5% Cabernet
Franc, could there be a portion of press wine to explained the sturdy
unyielding profile?
Savoury edges with lively farewell, solid offering, best
enjoyed at your favourite steakhouse, with some bloody protein and charry
treatment might broaden the texture or from 2017 as there is underlying interest
behind the beefy tannins, questions is who is cellaring wine in restaurant or
at home today?
