  August 26, 2018 - Port, brandy, overcooked cherries and peat bog. Sharp acidic bite devoid of fruit on palate, very thin. She's done

  February 22, 2007 - Amazing black / purple color, Good plum, toasted oak and berry character. Full-bodied, unctuously-textured, layered wine...lingering finish.

  November 18, 2006 - Jancis Robinson's Truly 21st Century Wines (Decanter Fine Wine Masterclass) (Landmark Hotel, Marylebone, London): A simple AC Bordeaux -- from Entre des Meres, just south of St Emilion on llimestone. Wine is mostly Merlot, unsually small barrel fermented. 14.5% £40-50
  
  Jancis: "Most tightly spaced vineyard I've ever seen, very low bunches,all barrels on cradles so they can be turned without jolting. Barrels need to be taken apart to clean. Smooth -- the caress of California with limestone taste. I personally wouldn't pay the money for it."
  
  Me: Dark red, good inviting nose, smooth rich fruit, delightful complex wine.
