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.

Excellent white... lemony, dry with a little sweetness
