A graceful, Cabernet-driven Margaux with lifted aromas of cassis, red plum and violets layered over cedar, sandalwood and a hint of bay leaf. The palate is medium-bodied and finely etched, its silky tannins and bright acidity carrying dark berry and subtle cocoa tones into a pepper- and mint-tinged finish. Refined and composed rather than powerful, it charms with texture and finesse.
