Product information "La Bri Affinity 2016"
From dark plum tones in the glass, almost black as ink, La Bri Affinity flows into the glass and exudes an incredibly complex bouquet with aromas of smoky spice, cherry tobacco and fine hints of cedar wood on the nose. On the palate this complex cuvée in classic Bordeaux style pampers with a lush full body and a taut tannin framework. Smooth and soft on the finish with long-lasting nuances of juicy black fruit.

The different grape varieties of this cuvée were kept separate both during vinification and during the maturing period in French barriques (41% new wood). After 23 months of maturation, the classic Bordeaux varieties were blended and bottled.
