This blend of 85% Carmenère and 15% Cabernet Franc has an open, medium-high to highly aromatic nose that is fresh and elegantly herbaceous with currant, cassis, and tobacco aromas adding pleasure. It's medium-full bodied with a tight mouthfeel and lovely, tangy aroma replays of currant and cocoa notes on the flavour profile. It's juicy with fresh acidity, along with green pepper and herbal notes on the mid-palate. Tight tannins lead to a long, youthful finish. Enjoy over the next 10+ years. Tasted Sept. 2023.
