Blend of Merlot (72%), Cabernet Franc (13%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) and Malbec (5%). Dark ruby color. Aromas of both red and black bramble berries with a hint of leather. Blackberry, black currant and plum fruit flavors with additional notes of black licorice, chocolate and menthol. A bit tart on the long finish. Smooth tannins and full bodied. Solid value. — 2 months ago

Deep garnet color with a hint of brick. Leather and black cherry on the nose very subdued alcohol. Earthy notes at first then dried orange peel dried montmorancy cherry leather and a bit of smoke. Have one more in the cellar which I will wait 2-5years to open. Thanks to Eric Brown for recommending this lovely cab franc — 7 months ago
First taste!? Mature with a bit of bricking but still nice solid color and bouquet of mature red fruits and earth. Velvety and enticing on palate. Excellent with Evan’s Shanghainese pork belly. 51/43/4/2 Merlot/Cab/CabFranc/Petit Verdot on label from Bernard Magrez touting same attention as his Pape Clement, and long history dating back to 1120. Importer label says 37/55/6/2 instead! (Oldest in Medoc, 1400 by house of Foix loyal to King of England. 1486 Camet new owner. 1500s by Michel de Montaigne.) — a month ago
