The Story
The wines display a beautiful color and notable extractable anthocyanin content, despite the limited temperature variations during the summer. The ripening conditions and moderate water stress contribute to a vibrant freshness and an elegant aromatic complexity, marked by pronounced notes of fresh red fruits.
96 Points - James Suckling
Intense graphite and violet character with lead pencil. It’s full and firm with chewy and balanced tannins. Iodine coming through. So intense. Super second wine. Like the grand vin of Lynch from the 1980s. 60% cabernet sauvignon and 40% merlot.
91 Points - Wine Spectator
This has a nice generous feel, with cassis and damson plum unfurling easily, backed by light floral and iron notes through the fresh finish. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
