A blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 4% Malbec and 3% Petit Verdot, the 2017 Claret opens with a straightforward, black-fruited nose with subtle baking spices. Medium to full-bodied, the wine displays firm tannins on the palate and with a bitter dark chocolate essence and drying finish.
