  Bright red fruits, spice, flowers, black cherries and cocoa define the perfume. The palate is soft, polished, fresh, lively and loaded with black cherries, chalky tannins, chocolate and peppery spice in the round finish. The wine blends 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot. and 1% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2025-2040.

  Vivacious and fruity, with red and black soft summer fruits. The tannins were surprisingly easy and I was amazed how drinkable this was, at such a relatively youthful stage in its evolution. On the mid-palate the wine developed in the mouth resulting in an utterly satisfying finish. The weight, balance and complexity were to be commended too. A lovely wine from what is regarded by experts, as a difficult vintage. CHP 89 pts

  (89-91 vvPunkte) Feiner Duft, floral und sehr feminin, rote Beeren, Veilchen. Im Gaumen schlank, feingliedrig, die Frucht wirkt fast schon burgundisch, der Wein strahlt Kühle aus und endet wiederum schlank im Abgang. Für den jungen Genuss bestimmt. 2025-2035 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Dourthe) vvWine.ch

  Spice, smoke, red pit fruits and cocoa form the nose. On the palate, the wine is forward, soft and vibrant, with a cherry filled, medium-bodied, fresh, creamy finish. The wine blends 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot. and 1% Cabernet Franc. 12.9% ABV. Drink from 2023-2035. 90-92
