| Tasting notes |
| A traditional Saint Émilion/Bordeaux blend, our 2010 Seventeen Forty is a true blockbuster. Highly-intense aromas of dark chocolate, cedar, and black currants set the tone for what is to follow. Ripe blackberries and blueberries intermingle with clover, cinnamon, and coffee. A long lasting note of fully ripened fruit, light acidity, and concentrated oak notes fill your mouth, minutes after the first taste. The wine’s high level of complexity is anchored by the power of Cabernet Franc and the finesse of Merlot. |
