  Dark purple. Modest nose unfurls with whiffs of violet. Dense and extracted; creamy barrel-y body; fruit-forward; lots of blackberry and raspberry jam. To me quite different than the sandy, peppery expression you get from the same grape in the Loire. Tannic and long finish. Drinks young for its 11-year age. Holding the next bottle for another 10 years.

  Deep ruby. Lots of green pepper, black fruit and beginning tertiary notes of tobacco and leather. Very smooth tannins. M+ acidity, pronounced intensity and long finish. It is a rich wine. Very Bordeaux like but richer unless we talk Bordeaux 2018. A little to rich for me, which sums up to 91p. If you like rich wine you would without doubt give more points.

  A very good wine but far from 100 points. Green pepper, chalk, herbs are more prominent than the fruit. Little tertiary development at this point, so I'd say it's mature in its first phase. I have one other bottle and will probably drink it within five years.

  96-97. Phenomenal wine, very elegant. Drinking in its prime.
