Blackberries, black mushrooms, violets, flowers, and dark tobacco. Black truffle, too. Full-bodied, yet in check and pretty. The fine tannins frame the wine perfectly. Really long and focused. Seamless. Elegance with power. This will age incredibly well, but already so gorgeous to try. 76 cabernet sauvignon, 9 merlot, 7 cabernet franc, 5 petit verdot and 3 malbec. Try after 2026, but attractive now.
