Pierre Lurton dropped by the shop today with this bottle (among others - lucky me)! Fresh and vivacious. 53% Cab Franc & 47% Merlot. Cool green Franc character really shines without occupying the field. Fine, elegant tannins lend beautiful bone structure. I'm sure this will age forever, but I thought it was drinking spectacularly well today.

Tha k you Mr. Lurton for coming by and pouring us four vintages of Cheval Blanc! This was in a great spot with the most olive intrigue, new leather and cool blue fruit. Where is my steak?

Warm nose with green bell pepper. Fruits are ripe. Black berries, black plum, black licorice, purple florals, herbs and green bell pepper is also on the palate.
