Cork

This blend of 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc fermented to 14.5% alcohol and was matured in new casks.  The result is arresting, with a dark blackberry, plum and fig fruit accented with hints of leather, smoke and earth.  The texture on the palate is dense and full-bodied, with plenty of tannic grip and impressive length.  It is a brooding, somewhat reserved wine that won many admirers, although the weight and heft could be daunting to others—a bit rich for my taste.
