The 2004 Barrouge is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the estate. The philosophy is to capture all the sweet supple flavors of Merlot as well as the density and weight of Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2004 Barrouge is indicative of the vintage, it is soft, supple, concentrated and charming. Aromatically the wine is filled with red currants and hints of sweet vanilla. On the palate you can find cherries and currants with long lenghty tannins.

The 2003 Barrouge is a result of a very ripe vintage. It has a ruby-garnet color with red cherry aromas followed by accents of French vanilla. The palate is soft and concentrated, filled with luscious cherry and blackberry jam. While the tannins are moderate, the supple texture upholds the sweet fruit, thus providing for a lengthy finish.
