NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This blend of Merlot, and Cabernet Franc hailing from Saint-Émilion is a vibrant expression of the appellation.On the nose, aromas of dark plum and blackberry are complemented by subtle notes of spice, tobacco, and leather. On the palate, the wine is rich and concentrated, with flavors of ripe blackberry and cassis, rounded out by a hint of licorice and a lingering finish. The tannins are well-integrated, leading to a graceful and lengthy finish.
