Initially this blend of Carignan, Cab Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot smells heavy and obtuse, with little pop; airing, however, allows this warm-vintage red to breathe and express itself. A plump mouthfeel is full but a touch soft and flabby. Deep flavors of black plum, blackberry and oak are saucy, while lightly cooked berry fruit carries the finish. Drink through 2023.
