Blended of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc, 21% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot, the 2015 L'Esprit des Pavots sports a deep garnet-purple color and gregarious nose that is opulent, plummy, spicy and open for business. The medium to full-bodied palate gives plenty of soft, juicy fruit with velvety, approachable tannins and a nice, long berry preserves-laced finish. 1,220 cases were made.
