A blend of 75% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and the balance Petit Verdot, the 2012 BFM is a rounded, balanced, nicely textured and medium to full-bodied red that gives up ample black cherry, kirsch, and raspberry fruit mixed with spice and toasted bread nuances. Aged in 22% new barrels, there were just over 300 cases made and it will offer plenty of pleasure over the coming decade.
