Made from 80% Merlot grapes (10% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon) the wine is beautifully deep in colour, smooth, fruity and able to be drunk fairly young - although giving great pleasure for many years to those wine lovers patient enough to store it. A nose of fruitcake, spice and ripe, plummy fruit. Soft and rich on the palate, with blackcurrants, plum, and smoky cedarwood.
