Expect chocolate, dried fruits and fig flavours that are not quite at prune stage; glorious exoticism and hedonism here. The fruit is clearly ripe and exotic, but it does still have a core of freshness that runs through it; the river and the terroir did their job in this vintage. This steals up on you and has real charm and definition. 2% Cabernet Franc makes up the rest of the blend. Drinking now to 2028.
