Aromas of black cherry, plum and cassis. The palate is rich and refined, with some soft, evolved tannins and zesty acidity. The plum replays, along with cherry cola, blackberry and baking spices. There is touch of herbaceousness from the Cab Franc, but it is well integrated with the primary fruit. The long finish has notes of vanilla from the oak aging. Chill lightly and enjoy with grilled sausages or serve at cellar temperature with a pan-seared rib eye.
