Cat pee and grass up front, but not in a bad way, but with rich honeyed white peach fruit right behind it. Nice.

Un bordeaux que en nariz nos recuerda a un cabernet Californiano, afrutado en nariz, con recuerdo a frutos rojos, y en boca se siente la elegancia de bordeaux, con un toque de modernidad, que exibe bordeaux en ese año 2010, vale destacar que para ser 2010 estaba en el punto exelente de su evolución.
