Full ruby-red. Black plum dominates the nose, which offers hints of cedar, dark chocolate and minerals with air. Nicely layered and rich, with an enticing sweetness for the year. The substantial merlot component gives this a fine-grained, rather elegant texture, and contributes to the wine's pliant tannins. Much of the merlot here is planted in classic argilo-calcaire soil, notes Dhalluin.
