A Bordeaux style, 75% cabernet sauvignon and 25% merlot. 13% ABV. Light to moderate tannins, moderate acidity. Dark fruit. A tribute to the skill of the winemaker.

Good color. The nose shows lighter aromas of red currant, raspberry, herbs and a hint of spices. This is barely medium bodied on the palate with decent concentration and good class. The medium length finish features integrated tannins. A great success considering the vintage.

Classic cool-climate Bordeaux blend. Bell pepper and cassis, some tomato leaf as well. On the palate, there's a bit more of a (modest) oak influence, coming across as a bit of espresso/cocoa dusted cherry. I think this will be even better in maybe ten years once the oak influences a little more and the pure fruit shines through.

Nice structure and has potential, but this is a bit young right now … should have waited another year. Tight at opening and tastes young (air helped). Structured tannins and has solid potential. Wait another year before opening the next bottle.
