"85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot. Bright raspberry and graphite aromas, with violet and rose perfume. The palate is medium-bodied and juicy, the exquisite Cabernet fruit given both real presence and a pretty vivacity. A traditional GPL, in the best sense. 13% abv. 75% new oak. Cropped at 40 hl/ha.
