Dense with dark red fruit. Chocolate and moccha - the large share of Merlot is showing. You need to drink this one cool, almost cold to keep it from mildly nauseating. All this in my opinion of course, being not much of a Merlot-guy. Maybe advisable to keep it in the cellar for 5 more years.

Super elegant Cornas. Freshly ground black and white pepper. Dark berries. Really like this vintage. Here it has a seriousness to it, while at the same time relatively light and very elegant. Highly recommended (while waiting for the “first” wine) and in a very nice place now.

Quite well-balanced young Bordeaux. Showing some maturity already. Dark berries, smooth. Not overly dominated by blackcurrants. Nice but not fantastic.
