Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Crafted by the Garcin family, a blend of mostly Merlot (80%) with Cab Franc, 100% new French oak aging. Deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits, spice and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of Cherry & Plum, with notes of licorice, cinnamon & cedar, lively acidity with great mouthfeel. Fine tannins, still a bit tight, open nicely, long finish ending with toasty cedar, tobacco and earthy spice, should continue to age well. Nice!
