The fruit for this blend of 61% Cabernet Franc, 31% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec comes from Chalk Hill (58%) and Alexander Valley (42%). Pierre Seillan believes that the Chalk Hill fruit provides a truffle-like character and the Alexander Valley provides minerality, structure, tannin and intensity. The 2008 will be fascinating to taste alongside the 2007 over the next 30+ years. Sweet mulberry, blueberry and blackberry fruit intermixed with hints of black truffle, damp earth and forest floor spring from this beauty of breathtaking intensity, purity and texture.
