Expected aromas include complex layers of dark fruits like cassis, blackberry, and plum, complemented by savory notes of bell pepper, tobacco leaf, and a hint of mint, characteristic of Cabernet Franc. Subtle oak influences will introduce cedar, spice, and perhaps a touch of graphite. On the palate, it should be full-bodied with firm, integrated tannins and a vibrant acidity that provides freshness and structure. The finish is typically long and elegant, showing persistent dark fruit and savory complexity.
