Supple fragrance of ripe tomato, spice box, graphite and gravel. Palate is dry and earthy. A balanced and clean texture. Need a bit of time for the palate to open up. Finish is clean and lingering.

Moderately dark color but a bit on the dingy black side. Rather restrained in the nose, clearly claret but in a low key way. In the mouth very resolved and drinkable. Not so much fruit as spice with some tannin and a moderate body. Overall this is more an ordinary rather than exceptional wine. At $25 there are better wines.

Die Farbe leicht, transparent, gleicht einem leichten Pinot... Am Gaumen geht's leicht weiter, das Ganze wirkt verwässert und auch von den Aromen nicht überzeugend. Himbeeren, auch hier irgendwie Pinot-artig.... und das auf der sauren Seite - hmmm... Nein, auch wenn 2011 ein eher schwaches Jahr ist wird hier eine noch schwächere Vorstellung abgeliefert.

Deep red. Silky aromatic fruit nose. Plums, mineral, flint, graphite, cedar, dried flowers. Soft tannins, medium bodied, lingering finish. Elegant Margaux character
