A nice right bank Bordeaux. Cab Franc adds some angularity to what is a bit of a dark fruit forward wine from the Merlot. Good acidity. Showing well but a touch young.

Dark ruby red color with ripe black fruits, vanilla, and spice on the nose and on the palate. Rough but meaty texture, firm tannins, and reasonable length on the finish. Easy-to-drink but surprisingly taste more like traditional Italian wine rather than French wine, or it's too young to drink?

The nose was very impressive, lots of floral and perfume and earth. Unfortunately the palate didn't match. Maybe too young, all tannin and very little of anything else
