Tasting Notes: A Classic Claret Profile

The bouquet is sophisticated, dominated by rich black fruit-think concentrated cassis and dark cherry-complemented by tertiary notes of fine leather, tobacco leaf, and a distinct mineral, graphite edge. The palate is harmonious, balancing ripe fruit concentration with the appellation’s characteristic firm, velvety tannins. It possesses a generous, yet controlled power, culminating in a persistent finish that speaks to its Médoc origins and careful barrel maturation.
