Merchant's description
The 2018 release is a made up of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot, 1.5% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec, aged for 22 months in oak barrels, 82% new. Reviewed by the critic James Suckling as follows, `Blackberry and chili with hints of cloves and graphite. Bitter chocolate, too. Full-bodied, very linear and tight with intense tannins that lead you down the finish. Solid structure.`
