Vintage 1989
|
| Grape blend : 60% cabernet sauvignon - 40% merlot. |
| The wheater : Spring was ideal and the flowering occured very early begining june. The summer again was perfect with a few salvatory rains but even so with a severe drought by the end of august. The harvest started begining september, well in advance, under glorious conditions. |
|
The wine : Dark slightly developed colour. Charming, intense, bouquet of blackcurrants and ripe fruit. Powerful, earthy, rich in tannins which are mellowing and acidity. Long, strong aftertaste with a hint of vanilla. Captivating. Drink now - 2010 |
