Deep ruby colored, with medium viscosity (14.6% ABV).  The nose has medium (+) intensity aromas of black cherry, blackberry, acai berry, vanilla, dill, a hint of green pepper, violets, and menthol.  The palate is dry, with medium acidity, a medium (+) body and medium (+) tannins that are chalky.  Medium (+) intensity flavors echo the nose and lead to a medium (-) length finish that makes my lips smack.  I feel the need to take another sip.  Yummy stuff, this is a blend of 46% Cabernet Franc, 42% Merlot and 12% Petit Verdot.  There’s some cellaring capacity for this already aged wine, and it will get better.  I think it’s worthy of 93 points and 5 stars- $50 per bottle.  Drink till 2030 with hearty meat dishes.  Salut….
