The large amount of very ripe Cabernet Sauvignon delivers fruit expression with good tannins. The Cabernet Franc brings a subtle freshness and fruit with notes of raspberry, red current, and cherry. The Merlot adds a deep color, richness and a round aspect with black cherry, cassis, and blackberry flavors. This wine will age nicely for the next 25 years but can also be enjoyed within the next 5 years.
Blend: 60% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – Robert Parker - Its ferocious tannins still need some resolution, and the wine is definitely what the French call a “vin de garde,” needing probably 8-10 years of cellaring. It is certainly concentrated, dense purple in color, with notes of iron, crushed rocks, black currants, kirsch and toasty oak. This is a chancy wine given the history that tannins always outlast the fruit, but there is a lot here and I wouldn’t want to dismiss it, considering all the good stuff it appears to possess. From the St.-Emilion home of the late Jess Jackson’s ambitious wine program, this wine was made by his brilliant superstar winemaker Pierre Seillan, who actually is Bordelais. The question here is if he has built this wine up too much with extraction and power.
