Amazing value for money. A downright delicious Bordeaux made from mainly Merlot. A gorgeous nose of creme de cassis and black currant. A light touch of burnt wood adds more layers to the fruit. The taste is pleasant with a nice intensity in the fruit - and balanced out with reasonable levels of both acidity and tannin-structure.

Flowers, chocolate, espresso, plums and spice create the nose. Medium-bodied, soft and polished, with a mouthful of sweet, ripe, lush, black cherries coated with chocolate that linger, this is one of the top generic. Bordeaux AOC wines. And it is going to be delicious on release. Drink from 2023-2033.

Tasted over three days and certainly a Merlot-wine. Chocolate, coffee notes here, rich, creamy, somewhat Goût Americain with it's sweet approach, but the balance is fine. Great value.

Fruity, juicy, medium-bodied wine with chocolate overtones to its plummy fruit. Plush on the palate the wine finishes with loads of deep dark polished fruits. This is already quite a lot of fun to taste, and it is only going to get better. Drink it over the following decade. 90-92
