PNP - dark red, nearly black color. On nose, dark fruit (blackberry, sweet cherry), green bell pepper and tobacco. Palate had similar flavor profile. Medium body/acidity / tannins. Can tell from warm Bordeaux vintage - very enjoyable wine and excellent QPR. 91-92 range.
Need to rebuy more current vintages.

Delayed note; tasted young for potential cellar purchase. A surprisingly well-integrated St. Emilion at this price point; not as complex and rewarding as higher-end options, but a solid drinker and well worth its price. Some fascinating history behind this producer, even dating back to Roman Empire days. Purchased a few for the cellar and looking forward to trying it again in a few years.

rich and full body and aroma, mellow soft entry with graceful refined body. Balanced.

Delicious wine! Layers of soft tannins and fruit. Graphite, dark cherry. Well balanced, terrific QPR.

Currants, graphite, slight floral/herbacious notes. Long finish. Good food wine.
