Garnet colored. Brett and latex dominate the nose. Light bodied with tart red cherry predominant on the palate.

Enjoyed drinking this Bordeaux with a great home cooked meal. Went well with a rack of NZ lamb.

Pure, 100% merlot. Unoaked. Les Griottes is translated to tart cherries which is a descriptor which says it all about this wine. Fantastic.
