Tasting Note:
Nose: Expressive and layered, showing ripe black cherry and plum from Merlot, lifted by subtle graphite, dried herbs and gentle cedar spice from Cabernet Franc and French oak.
Palate: Medium- to full-bodied with a polished, Bordeaux-inspired structure. Plush dark berry fruit is framed by fine tannins, balanced acidity and well-integrated oak. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot add depth, firmness and a savoury edge, leading to a long, composed and elegant finish.
