This blend of roughly 72% Merlot, 18% Syrah, 5% Malbec, and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon was raised in French oak (25% new) for 12 months. It has a medium+ intensity nose of currant, cassis, pepper spice, blackberry, and plum. The medium-full bodied palate has balanced acids and soft tannins with pleasing peppery spice replays on the flavour profile. Very good length on the juicy finish. Enjoy over the next 3-4 years. Tasted Mar/2020.
