70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc. Could be heavier on the Cabernet Sauvignon, but I suppose that’s the point all along – to make a smooth, well-rounded and very easy to drink red. As others have mentioned, at €6.5 at a super market (and that’s in notoriously overpriced Brussels), the price–quality ratio is pretty much unbeatable… and that also justifies my rating. All in all, definitely a good option for mild cheeses and meat cuts. PS. Three years in bottle felt just about right. Not sure it should be allowed to age much longer than five years.
