WineDiva's Review

Delicious, complete, generous.
This classic Grand Classique blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers excellent consistency but this 2016 really stands out. Velvety aromas of black raspberries, cassis, vanilla, licorice, cola spices and purple flowers lead to a palate that is supple with generous fruit. Plush black fruit, exotic spices, and mocha, which trail across the finish. Balanced and delicious with silky tannins this is a complete wine, delicious to drink, and utterly pleasing.
Pair: Smoked eggplant, grilled meats, aged cheeses, hearty stews and pastas.
