  From the A.Lurton stable, like la Louvière. Quite a deep nose of blackberry and blackcurrant, with cigar box and hints of blueberry. Much the same impressions on the palate, quite rich but very civilized, the usual Cruzeau chunkiness tempered by a fair amount of classical elegance. Hints of green on the finish but altogether more convincing than the Citran. Very good value at 8 euros.

  Quick note: Bought three years ago at supermarche--likely 10-12e. Minimal sediment, good color, simple, good for everyday. Possible storage issue during pandemic.

  Rubis de bonne intensité. Nez moyennement expressif, avec des notes de fruits rouges dominantes, de cerise surtout. Légèrement boisé, bonne présence en bouche, équilibre correct malgré des tanins légèrement astringents. Pas spécialement complexe mais agréable. Il sera intéressant de voir comment le vin evoluera dans quelques années.

  This is somewhat tight; it has tannin and fruit, but in a lower degree. Not a wine to write home about.
