Wine Enthusiast, Dec/2017

"Ripe fruit, juicy acidity and a fine balance of tannins give this wine great potential. It's full of blackberry flavors as well as some solid, structured tannins. Drink from 2020."

"80% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Fruity and rather charming with a good interaction between ripe plum characters and tannin. Finishes clean."
