"Sibling Bordeaux blend adds a dab of Petit Verdot to 55/35 Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. 2017 remarkably vital, shows great persistence of sweet blackcurrant and dark cherry fruit, hints of printing press and liquorice, all supported by 22-month oaking, 45% new, and silken tannins." – Malu Lambert, Platter's Wine Guide 2026, 92 points, 4.5 stars
Taste profile
On the palate
Rich, complex and youthful, with luscious flavours of ripe black cherry and cassis layered with aged leather, cigar box and subtle graphite nuances. Firm structure and generous fruit are beautifully balanced, leading to a juicy, persistent finish with impressive depth and sophistication.
