With a blend that often leans towards Merlot (typically around 50%) for early softness, this wine is luscious and well-structured. It offers a bouquet of dark berries, plum, and subtle notes of sweet tobacco and damp earth. The palate is elegant, with polished tannins and a refreshing acidity that promises good longevity.

• Appearance: Rich, deep ruby.
• Aromas: Dark cherry, blackcurrant, graphite, faint vanilla.
• Mouthfeel: Smooth and full-bodied, retaining the classic structure of its appellation.
