This is a blend of 35% Syrah, 35% Cot (Malbec), 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Tannat.  This is a bit thinner and less ripe than the 2014 (a different blend).  Ruby in color, darker at the core, mostly clear and bright.  The nose has cherries with some pomegranate.  Medium bodied.  On the palate, cherries with some spice.  Good acidity.  The finish is a bit clipped.  Drink over the next three to five years.  This will work well with pasta with a red meat based sauce.
