Intense and powerful showing Plum, blackberry and smoke. Dense, flavory, medium to full bodied, just the right amount of acidity and a long balanced finish. Well done. NI:4, FI:23, FC:8, B:4, L:5

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, blackberry, forest floor, stoniness, medium toast, oak, vanilla and rose. It tastes like blackberry, strawberry, raspberry, plum, forest floor, stoniness, tobacco, bell pepper and cool/menthol. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.
A really nice wine for the price point. Very classic Ste Emillion characteristics.
92 - pretty darn good but nothing that blows my mind. Definitely a weekly drinking wine.

Delicious from first pour nondecant. Ripe opulent juicy, napaesque but with good balance not too fruity great depth, tighten a bit after an hour. Great future but fun now.

Pretty darn good if you like fruit forward chunky solar wines - that’s where it is at the moment, and benefits from a decent decant.
