  No formal note, this blend of all five bordeaux varietals is well made and smooth, with an obvious bordeaux style bouquet and a palate to match.

  31/27/17/15/10 Cabernet/Merlot/Petit Verdot/Cab Franc/Malbec. 18 months French oak. Medium plus nose shows herbal tone, red/black fruits, red pepper, tarragon, black plum, singed blackberry, fresh red earth. Palate matches, lots of layers with both earth and fruit hitting together, dried plums, fresh turned earth, blackberry. Smooth medium plus tannins, medium plus alcohol, medium body frames things nicely. Well made and worth a buy.

  Out of the bottle, together with friends. Wooden scents in the nose. Great on the palate with dark fruits and very soft and round tannins. Accelerating on the aftertaste with a nice punch of power that some of the pricy Bordeaux wines are missing. A really surprise!
