Decanted for 90 minutes. Deep crimson red color. Blue and red berries, tobacco, sandal wood, hyacinth and a green tulip notes with grippy tannins. Pair with fattier/richer food. Drinking well now but should last for another 5y+. Glass: Riedel Veritas Merlot

Redcurrant jelly, smoke, earth, truffles, pencil shavings, cedar on the nose. Great on the palate, soft fruit, yet structured with grip and an excellent finish. Pretty in a Margaux way and very classic. Bargain from Lidl France at 18 Euros!

Quite a deep colour. Light to medium weight, with blackcurrant fruit and some cigar spice. A slight element of dilution towards the finish, but otherwise this is quite an elegant, soft but rounded, wine.

Drank not tasted.
Decanted and drank over 2hours. Seemed over the hill as the fruit was fairly dried out already.
