Medium-bodied, forward, fresh, and savory, with an herbal, spearmint, and tobacco leaf edge to the red fruits, while not mature, it is already easy to like now and should deliver pleasure for at least the next 12 years or so. Drink from 2023-2035.

Medium bodied claret, which shows classic Bdx character and is drinking well right now. Decent length and balance. Should hold for several years but probably not for the very long term. Acceptable value around €28.

Great character although could have more St. Estephe finesse. Drinking well although a tiny bit acidic still.

醒酒一个半小时,闻香有草本的青味,石墨气息,黑醋栗的香气,单闻起来都能感受到一股提神的酸果味,入口酸度中高,单宁紧涩,有些扎嘴,青椒,醋栗混合着石墨和泥土气息,酒体中等,结构不小,后段有点空,标准波尔多赤霞珠式的叙事结构,酒的状态比较紧,没完全醒开,余味淡淡香草奶油。一支非常工整的酒,严肃而又沉稳,橡木桶影响适中,酒体扎实,口感平衡,比前一支 Chateau Cantenac-Brown 的结构感要好很多,现在喝起来感觉还太年轻,酒的质量很不错,有着很长的陈年潜力。考虑到它便宜的售价,极具性价比。

A medium bodied, forward, classic styled wine with an easy going, fresh, red berry character that will drink well with just a few years of age.
