A Bordeaux style blended wine that will Tantalize your senses.
This Tantalize will tease your taste buds, tormenting them by presenting something desirable and continually keeping it at the edge of your taste senses.
The initial reaction on the palate is suave, while the smooth, round and enveloping tannins are cashmere-like in texture.
The finish, thanks to the homogenously high quality of the Cabernet Franc, displays notes of spice and menthol, together with lovely freshness and tension.
Structured by well-softened tannin the finish is soft, both warm and fresh. This wine is very powerful and concentrated
Composed of Cabernet Sauvignon (14%), Cabernet Franc (21%) and Merlot (65%), it is unfailingly balanced, thanks to its remarkable freshness.
The composition is similar to respected Right Bank Bordeaux blends from Château Beauregard in Pomerol or Château Angélus in St. Emilion.
Summer brought generous sun during the day and cooler marine influences, virtually uninterrupted by major heat spikes. The relatively mild summer followed by extended fall sunshine and moderate heat created near-ideal conditions as the fruit developed flavor complexity, approaching maturity with gradual increases in sugar levels, reaching optimal balance of brix and pH levels at harvest.
