Pierre Lurton and technical director Pierre-Olivier Clouet told me that the final blend is 72% merlot and 28% cabernet franc (it was 75% merlot and 25% cabernet franc during the Primeurs)

even with traces of menthol as the Cabernets take the lead here

pure and extremely pretty spicy red fruit aromas followed by supple yet precise and focused middle weight flavors highlighted by a sappy

Otherwise the restrained medium weight flavors possess excellent structural ripeness as well as fine size

A big step up in aromatic elegance and complexity and while the toast is not subtle
