From a tiny estate located just east of Libourne and clay, sandy soils, made with consulting advice from Jean-Philippe Fort, the 2015 Château La Confession is an outstanding blend of roughly 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc that saw malo and aging in new barrels. It boasts a deep ruby/purple color in addition to terrific notes of blackberries, blueberries, violets, damp earth and spring flowers. With medium to full-bodied richness, an elegant, fresh mouthfeel, and integrated acidity, it’s worth seeking out and will drink well for 10-15 years.
