Assemblage and origin
While the previous vintage was characterized by wet weather, 2015 was unusually dry overall in the Bordeaux region. Added to this was the late flowering and ripening period of the vines due to the lack of rainfall. Nevertheless, the harvest produced grapes with excellent ripeness. Merlot (55%) and Cabernet Franc (45%) were blended and matured for 18 months in new, large oak barrels.
