A Bordeaux blend, the 2009 The Navigator gives a medium-deep garnet color and aromas of blackberries, red currants, kirsch and dried Provence herbs with touches of toast and menthol. Medium bodied and elegantly fruited, it’s showing a little evolution on the palate with some savory meatiness, a medium level of fine tannins, lively acid and a long finish. Approachable now, it should drink to 2019+. No known USA importer.
