Elegant, focused and delicious. Shy floral essences wants to show on the nose but hides behind the wild herd, vegetal, and cassis. As the wine hits the tongue you feel the finesse and lightweight of the blend. Cab Franc wants to take the stage yet plays nice as it showcases herbs, raspberry, but not jammy while rounding out with pepper and coffee notes. Finishes as elegant as it started-dark chocolate chips, gravel and white pepper. Wonderful cool climate Bordeaux Blend. Drink now!

In a very nice place now, but no hurry- more enjoyable than most Bordeaux I've tastes lately.

Definitely needs a decant. I decanted 30 minutes and it needed more. Dark red color with ever so subtle brownish tones. Nose contains pencil shavings and ripe vegetables. Wine is very green with hints of cranberry and plum. Tastes much higher than the listed 13% OH. Wine reminds me of the 2010 Domaine Eden Cab Sauv.
