Dried flowers, red fruits, licorice, and spice create the nose and palate. The wine is soft, forward, medium-bodied, with a core of bright, crisp, red berries and apples. This is ready to go on release. Drink from 2024-2035.

(89-91 vvPunkte) Zwei Mal verkostet, auf Dassault und auf Balestard la Tonnelle. Leuchtendes Rubin. Verspielt, mit rotfruchtigen Aromen, einer floralen Note und einer schönen Mineralik, die im Untergrund mitschwingt. Im Gaumen knackig, leichtfüssig, der Wein zeigt eine knapp reife Frucht, merklich Gerbstoff und eine zügige Säure, wirkt recht burgundisch und hallt im Abgang lange nach. Nicht gross, jedoch in jeder Phase seines Lebens mit Spass zu trinken. 2026-2038 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. AGCCSE/Château Dassault) vvWine.ch

Here, the nose is a bit more interesting, with all of its layers of black and red fruits, smoke, espresso, mint and tobacco leaf. Slightly austere on the palate, making this quite classic in style. Give it a few years to develop and hopefully, soften and fan out. The wine blends 91% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink from 2025-2039. 88-91

UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: Red berries, juicy acidity and somewhat green, sticky tannin.
