Really tasty, fruity Cabernet with lots of black fruit, hints of eucalyptus, some Provencal character (a trace of herbs) and good tannic support. Nicely judged oak. Really impressive.
‘Cabernet Sauvignon is very untraditional in this area, but the results are delicious – and you can really get a sense of the pine resin and wild thyme swept into the the vineyard by the howling Mistral. Add delightful blackberry and plum fruits and this is a class act....’ Oz Clarke’s 250 Best Wines 2010.
