Bordeaux, Pomerol
80% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc
Lush bouquet with lots of dark fruit, cassis, blackberry, bumbleberry jam, vanilla, roasted cocoa beans, with notes of Peony and garden herbs. On the palate, the wine is ripe, dense with firm tannins and a fresh finish. Lots of fruit flavours - cassis, blackberry and a hint of plum, with spice notes, vanilla and mocha.
Pairing Suggestions: Drinking well now, should age nicely for 7-12 years. Delicious with hearty flavourful meat dishes, or a classic steak. A great choice for any special and elegant occasion, pair with beef brisket, pot roast or braised lamb. Or serve with a board of aged cheeses after an afternoon of antiquing.
