Merlot grown on a hedgerow is blended with Cabernet Sauvignon grown in the same field at a ratio of about 13%. In 2023, there was a drought before the rainy season and a record heat wave. There was a lot of rain in mid-September, but it did not have a major impact, and the fruit was moderately ripe by the end of September when it was harvested.
In 2023, the blend ratio of Cabernet Sauvignon was slightly increased, resulting in a taste that strongly reflects the flavors of black fruits such as black currant and blueberry, spices such as cloves, and fine, astringent tannins.
