The 2011 Arcanum is composed of 77% Cabernet Franc 14% Merlot 7% Cabernet Sauvignon 2% Petit Verdot. As this begins to open in the glass it releases seductive aromas of blueberries, cassis, black fruit, savory herbs, sweet spices, tobacco and fresh florals. On the palate this continues to impress, with its gorgeous texture and power combined with elegance and finesse. Nicely structured around beautifully soft tannins leading into the very long supple finish. This is a flat out delicious wine today and although it will only get better in time, it is hard to resist now. (Best 2018-2032) - January, 2017 (JD)
