2012 vintage. The longer you let it breath the better it tastes.

A red blend of 86% Merlot, dark purple with ripe fruit aromas and earthy spice. On the palate loads of sweet fruit and earthy tones with fine tannins, light and easy drinking, little complexity. Medium finish ending with mineral notes. Drink now. Tasting Sample.

Guy at Total Wine said this is a good intro to Bordeaux. Tastes dry w smooth tannins. Easy to drink and finishes well.
