This wine just wowed me in the tasting so elegantly straddling the New and Old World. Length, complexity, finesse all permeate its floral stony, mineral, liquorice red fruit flavours. Persistent fine grained tannins mark a refined, balanced finish. Try this again in 2019. Super effort. The fruit mix is 81/9/6/3/1 cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, petit verdot and malbec. Score - 98. (Anthony Gismondi, winealign.com, Nov. 26, 2013)
