(Wine Advocate Score 87-90) Yields were not too bad, with 31 hectoliters per hectare the average, and the alcohol cane in at 12.5%. As far as production, this is only one-third of what they produced in 2012. The final blend is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The wine shows soft berry fruit, roasted Provencal herbs, tobacco leaf, and a hint of soil undertones in a medium-bodied, easygoing fruit-forward, attractive and charming style. Drink over the next 7-8 years.
