WINEMAKER'S TASTING NOTES:

A dark, deep colour with a blue tinged robe, blackberry and blue fruits brood in the glass with a hint of Cabernet Franc that offers its signature trait of being perfumed and simultaneously earthy. On closer examination, there are notes of graphite, cassis and cocoa overlaying a subtle touch of oak. Upon first taste, the concentrated berry notes are polished and mouth-filling before the wine yields to a long finish with a cr�me bržlŽe quality and lingering hints of lavender and perfume. As the wine evolves in the glass, the fine grained tannins persist across the palate as it reveals roasted coffee bean characters and excellent Cabernet Sauvignon typicity. This Mystae is sure to become a wine to ponder as it gains complexity in the cellar for years and years to come.

ENJOY FROM: 5-12+ years from vintage
