"87% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc. Ripe raspberry aromas, with orange rind and summer roses. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry, opening onto a powerful mid-palate of rich, pure raspberry and blackberry fruit, with bitter chocolate, framed by firm, finely grippy tannins. Lots of energy and verve, making for an upbeat, exciting Conseillante.
