Eamonn scored this wine: 90/100
60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, a product from Bordeaux's left bank Haut Medoc region. Deep garnet in the glass. Intense aromas of prune, cassis and dried fruit. Elegant and complex, showing persistent evolution as it opens. Exotic spice, bitter chocolate and tobacco dance with a brooding earthiness. The wine is dry with high, finely integrated tannins. Very intensely flavoured. Plum, black cherry, cedar and spice all while showing a savoury edginess. A long finish with persistent tannic length. Outstanding. Developing nicely.
Pair with a herb crusted roast leg of lamb. Salty aged cheeses - Comte.
