54% Merlot, 6% Petit S. Pencil shaving, tobacco, cassis, plum, mint, and chalk High acidity, high levels of tannins felt mostly at the gum & cheek. Medium+ finish. Optical sorting was particularly important in the rainy 2017, during which grapes were picked between Oct 4-8 (cf. 2018 picking date Oct 18-23).
