Nose
There are immediate aromatics of blueberry pie. anise and dark plum. The true Cabernet Franc aromatics of cigar box, black pepper, forest floor and pencil lead mineality are under the fruit.
Palate
The 23% of Merlot added this year is extremely apparent in the lush velvety mouthfeel of the wine. Loads of plum with raspberry compote are on the palate with more pepper and gravel minerality showing. The tannins are present but soft and in play well with the acidity, with blueberry pie lingering on the long finish
