A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the main varieties of Bordeaux, form the framework and structure of the wine. They also give it the spicy-fruity aroma. Pinot Noir (late harvest) rounds out the wine and provides a fruity bouquet. The wine is aged for two years in used barriques, then aged in bottle for another two years.
