Vigneron Pierre Seillan heads this winery that was started in 1998. This wine is a blend of 61% Cabernet Franc, 31% Merlot, with the remaining parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. This is a powerful and intense wine that opens with ripe aromas of anise, milk chocolate, blueberry and blackberry with some oak and red bell pepper. There is a wonderful range of aromas here. The flavors of red currant, mocha, red bell pepper and blackberry persist. The wine has a lively mineral backbone and is just delicious to enjoy right now. Sip and savor this one.
