A farewell dinner for a good friend returning to France with his family after establishing the most convivial auberge in town. Warmed up with a fun raspberry-charged Côtes de Blaye then delved into this Saint-Émilion grand cru. A right-bank Bordeaux blend of Merlot & Cabernet Franc that holds surprisingly luscious deep graphite alongside its dense dark fruit & hints of pralines and mahogany. Paired delightfully with duck confit, among other scrumptious plates. :) ...a great "until we meet again" dinner!
