Note di degustazione
60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet with brick rim but with real depth of colour. First impression is black tea and then perhaps just a little volatile in its dark fruit – and it gets worse. A bit of a hole in the middle and drying on the finish. Ends rather tough. (JH)

60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc. Amazingly deep ruby. High-toned floral aromas. Lots ofOXO and drama but a bit astringent on the need. The finish is very brutal. Lots of ingredients that don’t quite hang together. (JR)
This is typical 1995 in that it’s young, tannic, masculine and still vigorous and foreboding. This vintage at age 20 seems reluctant to evolve in the most graceful manner possible, but it is still easily holding on to life and still has a fair amount of tannin left to resolve. The wine is concentrated, but will the tannin ever soften to the point where it is well-integrated? This can be drunk now, as the aromatics are enticing and complex. Although, be aware of the tannin clout the wine still possesses. Drink 2017-2030.
