Another great nose of floral notes and menthol. A pleasure to sniff. Palate is juicy, bright, with dark fruit intermingled, and a good background of acidity. A happy wine.

Lightish ruby with blue hue. Reserved nose, but showing herbaceousness, dried herbs, dark raspberry. Sweet, soft, fresh, juicy attack, with very soft, light tannins, moderate acidity, very short term concentration - drink and quaff! -- and a short finish. A fun, soft, gently ripe, unpretentious drink, and a good entry-point for an adventurous consumer.

Lovely nose of a combo of menthol/camphor/light tar, with some cab fruit intermingled. Taste is juicy, dark fruity with a good bite of acid. A real pleasure to drink.

This remains one of our favorite bourgueils. Bright fruit, great funk and perfect with just about any food
