Dark garnet, clear rim. notes of cassis, vanilla and blackberry cobbler on the nose. Nicely acidic and structured. Little oak and good spice. Food slutty.
CS 55%, Merlot 40%, Malbec 5%

Bright red cherries and red currants introduce themselves on the nose, followed by chocolate, dill, anise and hints of earth. The palate follows a similar pattern, with bright, ripe fruit up front, moving into dried herbs, cocoa and long tannins. An approachable and very quaffable Bordeaux from an excellent vintage.
