Our blend of Merlot (54%) and Cabernet Franc (46%) is named after the evocative corner of the Le Mans racing circuit in France, where perfect driver balance and finesse are key to a clean exit leading to one of the longest straightaways in motor racing. Much as this corner requires the hand of an experienced driver, our wine will perform best after time in the cellar.
Carefully tended by the Britton Family, this stunning property has perfect conditions for long slow ripening of Cabernet Franc and Merlot producing fantastic flavour and tannin ripeness while keeping brightness and balance. The warmth of 2014 brought forth the results of continual fine tuning of canopy and crop levels to achieve a substantial and brooding wine, kept fresh by signature bright acidity and silky ripe tannins.
