A barrel sample blended of 51% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2017 Ormes de Pez has a deep garnet-purple color and gives up notes of freshly crushed redcurrants, red and black plums and mulberries with touches of rose hip tea and tilled soil. Medium-bodied and elegantly styled, with approachable, chewy tannins, it delivers nice harmony with plenty of character.
