A straightforward Merlot, unadorned and uncaricatured. Intense nose of blackcurrant, black cherry, underscored by notes of dark chocolate and elegant roasting. On the palate, it is ample, structured, yet always fluid. The tannins are present, velvety, with a long and harmonious finish.

A Lucerne red with a quiet stature, combining controlled power and digestible depth. To be opened with a stewed dish, a grilled ribeye, or a leisurely autumn dinner.

Not the funkiest, no, but a red with a strong personality, built to last — and to convince without raising its voice.
