Deep ruby color medium(+) aromas and flavors ripe red fruit and tart black fruit (red currants, cranberries, red tart plums, black cherries and plums) secondary aromas of pencil shavings, cedar and cocoa powder. Light balsamic aromas and flavors. Medium body medium acidity, medium(+) fine grained tannin and medium(+) finish. It is a good compromise between a traditional #saintemilion #stemilion #stemiliongrandcru and a more modern, riper contemporary approach.

Surprising Right Bank Merlot dominant blend. Who needs Cab Sauv when you can turn it out this well with Merlot. Might be the catalyst to delve back into Merlot for a while.

A 2015 which is 100% ready. Superb wine, smooth as silk, no further cellaring needed...
