Winemaker: Etienne le Riche. A pleasant herbal overlay sits atop the fruity core of ripe blackberry, boysenberry and black plum on the nose of this rich, powerful wine. Hints of cigar box and blackcurrant leaf add an earthy lift throughout, while ample acidity and structuring tannins keeps the intensity and lush fruit in check. The bold, plush and seductive palate boasts intense dark-fruit flavors that are decadent but not overly done or sweet, with final notes of toasted spice and tobacco. This is an ager, for sure, so best to enjoy after 2028 and likely well beyond.
