Very nice effort from this chateau. A hint of green, fruity. On palate, acidity and tannin are high, but balanced. Nothing like St Estephe. More Napa style.

Medium bodied, fresh, bright, lifted red fruits, spice and earth pop up in the nose easily. The wine has energy, elegance and loads of red currants, red plums and herbs on the palate. The finish delivers more of those gorgeous red, sweet, chewy fruits. This is a big step up from previous vintages. I am liking it a lot!

Medium-bodied, round, forward and with a nice level of ripeness to the fruit and accompanied by spice and tobacco leaf, the wine really works well with this vintage. 90-92 Pts

The 2018 UGCB tasting Amsterdam 6/21/2021 (Amsterdam, Amstel Boathouse): Serious, juicy, even jummy, not severe, as a Saint-Estèphe can be.
Balanced midtaste, good tannins, above expectation; this wine has surprised me.
