  Very dark, intense fruit, rich and dense and dominated by the Merlot, more Saint-Emilion than classy Margaux, very silky tannins, but stull lots of unappealing (at least for my palate) toasty oak adding notes of charcoal and bitterness. Not a wine of great elegance, but it tastes impressively young for an almost 14 year old wine. A few more years of bottle age might do the magic here and hopefully integrate the oak. Ok now, but I would hold another 3 years. - 89+ points

  This is around the mark for the price. Attractive cedar, cassis and bay leaf on the nose; medium-plus bodied and slightly plump, the high Merlot content is quite prominent, still with some chunky tannins. 90-91 point range and serviceable.

  Decanter Fine Wine Encounter (The Landmark, London): A little leather, forest floor, black hued fruit, cedar, perfumed top notes - nice nose. Savoury, a smidge of yeast extract, muted fruit, dry woody tannins but, unlike the 15 and 18, this has had an opportunity to integrate and is embellished by the tertiary characteristics...Nice

  The years of additional age have really added a lot to this wine. Now, you find a medium-bodied, elegant, refined expression of tobacco, flowers, red currants, plum, and a hint of spice on the nose, and on the vibrant, expressive palate. Drink from 2023-2040.
