August 18, 2023 - Smakt i juni 2022.
Dyp rød.
Lukter solbær, bjørnebær, tobakk, treverk og krydder.
Smaker solbær, kjølig rød frukt, grønne urter, krydder og fat. Litt ubalanserte tanniner.
Klassisk Bordeaux, men mangler litt lengde og fylde. Svak årgang. -

February 14, 2019 - Bright, lean, tart, fresh red fruits coupled with herbal and leafy notes in a medium bodied, crisp wine are what you find here. Time will not add much to this wine.

January 24, 2019 - Dn1. Medium red, yellow tinged, 4.5. Opulent mature Medoc bouquet with a some spice as well. The palate is classic Medoc in its best sense and is still having some tannin, elegant finish. Drink now - 2025.
