A wine with a stellar track record continues its reign on the podium with the 2016 vintage. Beautifully realized, with supple structure and seductive aromas of blackberry, cassis and carefully selected oak tones that enhance the fruit and deepen the overall flavor mix. The finish goes on and on, with different notes ascending, then ebbing. A sublime pleasure. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
