4th of 6. This has nice freshness and elegance, and a fairly long finish. The oak overpowers a bit on the nose. Tannins are fine and could use time to shed. Sure, it doesn't have waves of fruit or massive persistence, but it is elegant and delicious and I'd be happy to drink this any night of the week.

2016
Tasted this excellent sine first at the chateau and then at home.
Color:
Didn’t note
Nose:
Elegant, berries and oak. Compared it to a younger average Bordeaux supérieur. The young had a must more younger fruit scent, almost unwelcome. The bouscaut was welcoming and solid.
Taste:
Tasted it fresh and aired. Maybe more fruits but in different stages fresh, while it all melted down nicely after some airing. There are some tannins, maybe even some underdeveloped ones, so could keep this wine for longer. However, with airing it, it all came down nicely to be a solid Bordeaux wine.

Delicious, a lot of fruits and aromas : black and red fruits, plums, cherry.
Tannins well integrated.
A high class wine.
Still much potential to improve with tine.

Powerful nose, full of fruits and spices. Oak is nicely integrated. Round and full bodied. High tannins and 14,5% - needs time. In 5 years will be much better.
