Cabernet Sauvignon, despite yields more significantly affected by the drought, accounts for 77% of the blend. It brings density, freshness and length to the wine’s structure. The 18% merlot softens the attack and enriches the mid-palate, while petit verdot ensures overall cohesion and depth. The nose reveals intense aromas of black cherry, morello cherry and blackberry, subtly enhanced by a touch of graphite. The palate is ample and structured, with finely chiselled tannins reflecting perfectly controlled concentration and remarkable persistence. An elegant and precise vintage.
