Composed of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet franc and 5% Cabernet sauvignon, the deep garnet-purple colored 2020 Mangot is scented of ripe black plums, blackberry preserves and black cherry compote, followed by hints of licorice, dark chocolate and cardamom, with a waft of wild mushrooms. The palate is plush with ripe plum and berry characters, fine tannins from the well-integrated oak, and fresh acidity giving balance on the long and elegant earthy finish
