St.Emilion Grand Cru Classée values tasting: The 2019 (93pt) and 2020 showed really well side by side. The wines were spiced, elegant with red and a touch of dark fruit, farmyard funk like a Medoc wines has. Elegant wines for the table with the 2020 (93+pt) having an additional punch and depth to it but needs longer in the cellar to come around.

Medium-bodied with a bit too much oak in the nose. Still, there is a lot to like here with all of its ripe, vibrant, sweet cherries, plums and dark chocolate that are on full-display in the round-textured, fruity finish. This is a nice step up from previous vintages, which is nice to see. Drink from 2023-2037.

Black cherries, espresso and licorice with earthy nuances come through on the nose. Medium-bodied with dusty plums, oak, green olives, and herbs are found on the medium-bodied palate and in the finish. You can drink this on the young side. 88-90 Pts

90-92 vvPunkte (14% Alkohol) Zurückhaltende Nase, öffnet sich zaghaft, zeigt Trockenkräuter, Himbeeren, Kirsche. Im Gaumen strukturiert, ziemlich straff, die Frucht ist knackig, ein markantes Gerüst aus Gerbstoff und Säure stützt, lebhaft und noch wild, mit viel Balance und einem soliden Abgang, endet auf Brombeere und ein Hauch Mokka. Dürfte sich zu einem ehrlichen, frischen Essbegleiter entwickeln. 2026-2040 (April/Mai 2021) vvWine.ch
