18 months in used French barriques. This wine starts out with the most intriguing and pretty nose of lavender oil, rose petals and jasmine. The medium-bodied palate chimes in with flavours of juicy plums and woodsy spices. It's plush and supple, with shapely tannins that melt into the body of the wine. No overt oak influence. The result is a lovely drink.
