NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Remarkably dense and intense wines have been crafted here, destined for extended aging.Mauvesin Barton's composition consists of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, with a third of the blend aged in new oak barrels.
This wine showcases a deep hue, leaning towards violet. Its scent is reminiscent of ripe blackberries with subtle toasty nuances, offering a refined yet approachable character. On the palate, it exhibits relative suppleness, attributed to the Merlot, complemented by a fine tannin structure and substantial body, making it well-suited for prolonged cellaring. Despite this, it retains a youthful charm.
