  First bottle was corked so grabbed another. Pop and pour. Dark fruits with plum and black cherry on the nose and palate. Beautiful bottle and a relative bargain in the PM family. Another few years in the cellar wouldn't hurt, but can certainly be enjoyed now with a decant.

  This wine has come together nicely . Popped and poured and paired with shepherds pie . Very aromatic, which I think is due to the Cabernet franc. Dark fruits , black cherry, pepper, vanilla/baking spice and some minerality on the nose. Medium minus acidity and medium tannins. Well-integrated. Long finish.

  Going against the grain a bit here, but something is not quite right here. Popped and poured. Lots of licorice /mint and black raspberry on the nose. Medium + tannins , minus acidity. Strong finish . Maybe it is in a funky place right now

  Smokey tabacco on the nose. Decent wine. needs time. dark ruby red. tannins all day. this is not ready. Long lasting though. Good wine, with some high alcohol. Again....hold for 5 + years. Cheers
