Dark, but clear color. Sweet dark berries, vanilla, caramel in the nose. On the palate, broad start with good length. Cranberry, vanilla, sweet but not too much. Drank with a steak with an avocado and chilli marinade, which - for me - was an absolute perfect match.

Incredibly ripe fruity nose - bright cassis and raspberry, cranberry and vanilla. Fruit-forward Medoc-style palate, sweetness of blackberry coulis and plum layered with a tarry, tannic austerity. Warm and lasting finish, slightly spiced with a little green pepper. Delicious, drinking well, but at this price would prefer a decent 2012 right bank.

Grand Cru Cabernet (pyrmont wharf, sydney): Slight burnt rubber and sweaty blackcurrant, sweet spice, there is a ripeness to the fruit that is a little off-putting on the nose…and so it proves on the palate; over ripe sweaty blackcurrant. Nah.

Cocoa and oaky notes on the nose with rich chocolate, soft cigar, sweet plum, black/red cooked fruits, cherry and chocolate; Big, round, silky, good structure, dry tannins; herbal notes there with eucalyptus, oak. 22 mo. in 25% new oak. Not that impressed as not really my style. Can't remember which one this was, but had 75% CA, with Car/Mal/PV.

Cette cuvée dominée à près de 84% par le cabernet sauvignon est appuyée par la présence de Carmenère, Syrah et Petit Verdot. Un rouge qui se démarque au nez avec ses parfums de cassis, de fruits noirs et ses notes de poivre et de cacao. La bouche est agréable avec ses saveurs de caissis, de mûre et légèrement toasté. Un vin structuré et qui se prolonge en finale avec brio!

At the beginning lets say ten minutes you got the taste of sour fruits but then blackberry with the tobacco smoke chocolate and caramel . I was looking for the 2007 but i couldn't find it . but i like it and i will buy one more in a couple of months . The wine looks purple colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, blueberry, lemon, prune, raisin, apple, cherry, pear, passion fruit and dust. It tastes like lime. The body is full. The wine has flabby texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Dense structure, a bit one-dimensional. Good cherry notes. Nice to drink now.

Dark red color. Fresh & fruity, but still deep & balanced. Some aging will make it more elegant.
