The 'Cuvée Arlette' is a compelling blend of mostly Merlot with Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. The wine starts off with bright aromas of black raspberry fudge, with a touch of coffee grounds and baking spices. The mouthfeel here is generous and downright voluptuous as the wine shows off dark cherry, cigar shavings, milk chcoolate and Asian spice flavors that connect with nice tension. This can be enjoyed over the next decade but is nearly impossible to resist right now.
