The nose is layered and refined, offering ripe dark berries, black cherry, plum, and hints of violet, alongside notes of cedar, graphite, and subtle spice.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with supple tannins, good freshness, and a balanced, focused finish. The Merlot gives the wine generosity and smoothness, while the Cabernet varieties add structure and a savory edge. It should drink well now with a bit of air, but also has the balance to develop further over the next several years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced in Saint-Émilion on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, the wine benefits from an appellation known for clay and limestone soils that naturally suit Merlot and help preserve freshness and finesse.
