Expert rating :
90 points, Wine Enthusiast, Roger Voss
"Forty-year-old vines and wood aging have produced a polished, ripe wine. A blend of 80% Merlot with the two Cabernets, this wine is balanced, dense and packed with black fruits. Drink from 2025."
How to enjoy : The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, good acidity and will be perfect with red meat, game, cheese and chocolate desserts.
