Blend: 85% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon There is a light touch to this wine, typical of 2021. From a 25-acre vineyard to the northwest of the Saint-Emilion core, it has ripe licorice and pepper aromas and jammy black-fruit flavors from the dominant Merlot. It is a fine wine, full of potential. Ripe, fragrant nose, chocolate, cherries and roses. Enjoyably textured, this has energy and focus as well as fruit concentration. Touches of vanilla and cream come in to give smoothness, ending on a softly salty note with liquorice and dark cocoa powder. Juicy, fruity and enjoyable, still with licks of oak so will need time but has ageing potential. There is a light touch to this wine, typical of 2021.
