The ripeness of the Merlot & the precision of the Cabernet were key for the 2012 vintage. The two varieties were very different in style & a big concern for the Château was the blend, however we were told ‘the blend came easily in 4-5 tastings’
- settling on 48% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon & 6% Petit Verdot. Cassis, blackcurrant leaf, hints of pine & cedar wood. Wonderful integration of dark fruits, silky tannins & refreshing acidity lead to a huge grand finale of a finish. A completely stunning wine.
