The nose is highly expressive, with layers of crème de cassis, violets, spring flowers, tobacco leaf, cedar, charcoal, and pencil shavings.\n\nOn the palate, this is a deeply concentrated yet impeccably balanced Bordeaux, driven by ripe black fruit, firm tannins, and a sense of cool precision.

While already impressive, it has the structure and complexity to age beautifully for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is crafted from a classic Bordeaux blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot.
