Seductive aromas of orange blossoms, plums, green olives and sandalwood. Medium- to full-bodied, showing crunchy fruit and fresh tannins with orange peel and a chalky texture. Salty at the end. A unique wine full of character but not overdone. Zesty and terrific. 13% alcohol. A blend of 84% merlot, 13% cabernet sauvignon and 3% cabernet franc. Best after 2029. (James Suckling, 98 Points)
