62% Cabernet Franc, 30% Petit Verdot, 8% Tannat
As (almost) always, this is a young red wine, with minimal time spent in barrels. It’s light in color and body, but this one is pretty elegant.
Aromas of quince and red fruit lead to BIG fruit flavors (cherry/berry). Light bodied, youthful, there’s a decent tannic backbone in this wine. it will pair well all summer with grilled meats and vegetables. Drinking well now and will improve for next five years, at least.
Suggested pair: flank steak, a very good burger, mussels with red sauce over linguine.
