WineDiva's Review

Espresso, opulent, toasted.
A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon was aged 12 months in French oak and went through a natural second fermentation in barrel.
Opulent aromas of cedar and potpourri, vanilla, licorice, pipe tobacco, sweet purple fruits and a hint of dark chocolate lead to a fresh palate that echoes the nose. It's seems quite oak dominant along with espresso, dark chocolate and spice. Medium-plus bodied and medium length.
