  A favorite since many years. Really nice vintage that has more years to mature deeper. Will save the other 3 bottles of this vintage for another 4-5 years.

  The 2014 is showing really well. Fruity nose. Light fruit with a little herbal note on the palate. Really impressive for the price and age. Much better than I expected. The oak influence was very subtle which I enjoy. It has aged beautifully.

  - Crimsom color - Nice Bordeaux mix from SA. Some sediments and bright acid, long taste. Will keep for some more cellaring

  Red berry fruit with soft and supple tannins. Still fresh but I was expecting a little more complexity, depth and complexity. Still enjoyable though. CHP 88pts

  Pnp. Probably a mistake. Colour deepish ruby, clear. Nose of pure black fruit and a touch of cream. In the mouth this is medium weight, fruit led. Nothing complex, all in balance but no excitement or hidden views waiting to be discovered. The fruit is good quality and rich but fairly direct. Pleasant now, may develop with time in bottle but it’s never going to wow me.
