March 9, 2024 - Cherries, plums, mint leaf, flowers, and a hint of cocoa show up easily in the nose. On the palate, the medium-bodied wine is soft, fresh, refined, and with a strong, dark chocolate mint note that accompanies the plums in the chalky finish. Drink from 2024-2042.

June 20, 2022 - (92-94 vvPunkte) (60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, 10%) Rubinrot. Die Nase ist vielschichtig, zeigt florale Töne, noble Gewürze, Pflaumen und Brombeeren, ein Hauch Röstnoten. Im Gaumen ausgewogen und mit rundem süssfruchtigen Auftakt, da möchte man gleich schlucken, doch dann packt die Struktur zu, markantes Tannin verleiht dem Wein eine gute Struktur, die Frucht ist gerade richtig reif, eine delikate Säure schwingt mit. Im Abgang rotfruchtig und sehr frisch, hinterlässt leicht krautige Aromen sowie Zitruszesten. 2025 bis 2044 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. J.P. Moueix) vvWine.ch

May 20, 2022 - Red plums, flowers, truffle, earth, and a bit of chocolate show on the front end in the nose. On the palate, the medium-bodied wine is soft, silky, supple, fresh, and with layers of bright, sweet, plums and just a touch of coca in the backend. Drink from 2024-2042. 91-93
