Bordeaux son apoge. Un nez raffin sur des notes de chne de Chypre et de bois de santal. Les tanins sont fondus dans une matire dlicate. La finale rvle des saveurs safranes. Prt boire sur un poisson de rivire la bordelaise.
Notation James Suckling
89 / 100
A fine and fresh wine with bright fruit and flowers, a medium body and an earthy, spicy finish. Minerally and crisp. Slightly lacks a mid-palate. Drink or hold.
Notation Jancis Robinson
16.5 / 20
Tasted blind. Evolved rim. Sweet start and then some appetising lift. Not a knockout but very respectable. Tannins well-managed.

Loads of ripe fruit are present in this wine, but I was surprised by what appeared to be a lack of complexity and nuance. It is certainly chunky, has a dense ruby/purple color and the concentration is adequate. The wine showed blue, red and black fruits, spice, and earth, but is not showing the nuances and complexity I would have expected. Drink it over the next 15 years.

Rather dark in profile, with pastis-soaked black currant and blackberry fruit at the core, studded with warm fruitcake and ganache notes. The bramble-edged finish lets the slightly exotic display of fruit maintain the upper hand. Best from 2016 through 2022. 6,500 cases made. JM
