The 2017 Leeu Passant Dry Red Wine offers bigger and bolder Cabernet aromas on the nose, with a pleasing dark-berried expression with nostalgic rusticity. Medium to full-bodied, the wine is still tight on the palate, with a soft herbal edge of delicate green peppers and a faint minerality. It has a complex balance of minerality and fruit, with the correctness of expression, ending with bold dark fruits on the long and thoughtful finish. This is a wine that will age gracefully for years to come.
