* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An intriguing blend of Négrette, Syrah and Malbec, this wine is a selection of the best lots of the vintage. It has purity of blackberry fruit, edged with an earthy, barnyard character. It is ripe, generous, but not overweight.

The Négrette grape is unique to Fronton, the vineyard just outside Toulouse in south-west France. This pure Négrette shows the juicy side of the grape, high in acidity, with piercing black currants and spice.

A hard-edged wine, lean and mineral in character. It has a juicy tartness to it, the berry fruits surrounding a curiously hollow center.

A strongly tannic wine, tough at the edges. The core is more juicy, with black cherry as well as bitter chocolate, bringing out spice, pepper and a layer of wood. The finish shows more berry fruit characters.
