Light but intense, with very smooth, fine-grained tannins present but gentle, this was an unusually pleasant wine. There were also some interesting variations involving darker fruit amongst the predominantly red.

Encore beaucoup de jeunesse, mais le vin gagne en nuances. Beaucoup de fraîcheur et de franchise dans les saveur et l'impression en bouche. C'est un heureux mélange des caractéristiques combinées des vins de Bordeaux et de la Vallée du Rhône. Beaucoup d'éclat. Vin sérieux et tellement bien élaboré. Encore jeune.

Full bodied darkish red with silky tannins and a long finish. A little brother/sister to Ch Musar, and not so little in fact! Very well crafted wine made of diverse french grapes. Drinks well now but can be stored for more years to come.

N: Pencil shavings, flower shop, vanilla, mint leaves, cassis, more stuff going on. M: Dark fruit, mint. Very prominent tannin structure begging for food. Built to age? Drinks well now with Bordeaux-friendly food.

Decanted for 6 hours. Very well balanced and fruity but not sweet. Very bold wine. Very enjoyable. Drink now-5years.
