  86/100 across 20-30 bottles from 2020-23. Very consistent. Good aged claret. Dry. Some black fruit. Round merlot middle. Some green wood cab franc lift. Corks had a tendency to split.

  A balanced and refined Bordeaux with good density and a layered mouthfeel. A touch too green for my taste but well-made if you like the style.

  Astringent upon first opening, needed long decanting time. Quite nice, round full bodied after several hours of decant. Would have placed this as a left bank classified bordeaux rather than Haut-Medoc.

  Funky, vegetal and under ripe on the nose. The palate is decent but somewhat tired.

  Medium garnet colour, with inviting depth.
  Light cigar box on the nose, with pencils, leather, fig.
  Medium bodied, with fading fruits of blackberry, bramble, figs. Despite fading, satisfying. Rather charming, and improved a little on day 2, but suggest it’s at its end now.
