Au nez c'est interessant, fruits noirs, reglisse. Mais en bouche, le fruit fait rapidement place à une finale austère et asséchante. Doit vieillir j'imagine... Peu de plaisir présentement.

Predominantly Merlot, this has a medium intensity nose of red cherry, floral, and wet forest floor aromas. The full-bodied palate has nice aroma replays supported by very good, juicy acids and firm, structured tannins. More earthy on the mid-palate. Very good finish length. Needs 3 years to soften.

Neighbours' Bank Holiday BBQ. Forward: savoury ripe plum with a touch of liquorice/dry spice and grainy tannins. Full, mellow and warm - 14.5% - finish. Good and honest Englishman's Claret and highly moreish. To be drunk up to 5yrs from vintage. 87+

En skikkelig god hverdagsbordeaux som er drikkeklar. Myk og god konsentrasjon

Took a long time to open up and did not stand out for me. Much better on the second day but still not as balanced as I'd like.

Bright ruby color with slow legs. Mild nose of blackberry and a bit of oak. Plum and stoniness on the palate. Long leathery finish.

Fresh, very mineral, blueberry nose. Herbal palate without too much to recommend it.
