Blend: 45% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc This is ripe and decadent with dark-berry, hazelnut, meat and volcanic-salt aromas that follow through to a full body, juicy tannins and a flavorful, spicy finish. Drink after 2022. Readers looking for a great introduction into the 2016 vintage (as well as an intro to this up and coming estate) should check out the 2016 Tour de Ripeau. Based on 45% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc, aged in 50% new oak (the balance was in tank), it's a medium-bodied, rounded, satisfying effort that has loads of black fruits, tobacco and earthy, herbal undertones. I'd happily drink bottles over the coming 8-10 years.
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
