Origin: Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux, France

Grape Variety: Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon

Alcohol Level: 13.5% ABV

Colour: A deep garnet red.

Nose: Intense and deep, the nose expresses aromas of black fruit, blackberry jam and violet.

Palate: From a round and fruity attack on black fruit and spice flavours, the wine develops a dense and fruit-filled mid-palate, building to a long finish on well-integrated tannins. Displaying the typical characteristics of Saint-Emilion wines, with ripe Merlot and a structure that is both supple and powerful, this is a nicely rounded wine, very mature and beautifully balanced, both full and velvety.
