Intense color. Still tight in the nose even after being opened for 24 hrs. Quite impressive but not for drinking now. Hold.
(12/11/2021) I may be going a little overboard with this rating, but this wine struck me in just the right place. Well made and will improve with time. An unlikely blend of Merlot (95%) and Petit Verdot (5%). http://www.chateau-ducluzeau.com

Dark fruits, cassis, ripe and bright. some dark herbal, liquorice and a little earth hint from mid-palate to ending. round and smooth texture, supple tannins, medium body with a concentrated fruity core, sweet, even a little jammy. typical Merlot based Bordeaux flavours, an easy drinking opening but complete with some complexity.

Könnte grad etwas zu sein die Flasche. Nicht abweisend aber weniger einnehmend heute.

Nose: Warm oak, bread, dusty cherries, some mint.
Palate: Soft full entry with lots of berries, mid-palate has present but rather subdued tannins, with some oak. Aftertaste every so slightly stemmy.
