    DeLille 2017 Chaleur Estate Red (Red Mountain)

    Cabernet Sauvignon (65%) and Merlot (25%) make up the heart of this wine, with the rest Cabernet Franc (8%) and Petit Verdot. The aromas show complexity, with notes of barrel spice, plum, cherry, scorched earth, herb and licorice. Structured, rich fruit flavors with lively acids, big tannins and a hyperextended finish follow. It will have a very long life ahead of it. Best after 2027.
