Community Tasting Note

  • Eudemis Likes this wine:

    January 7, 2023 - 15.5% alcohol, uh ho.... The cork is short with a pretty high density of defects. Medium colour with limited thinning at the rim.
    Good dark fruited nose with liquorice. Similarly balanced in the mouth, though slightly more red fruited; the alcohol does not impinge unduly.
    From memory, I would put this wine a notch below the corresponding offerings of Charvin and Balthazar. Accordingly maybe not a repeat purchase, although taken on its own terms this is pretty good and reasonable value at 12€ or thereabout.
    My first encounter with this property, and I cannot say that I am overly impressed, between the uncontrolled alcohol and the middling intensity of flavour.
    Let us hope that the gap between this wine and their CndP is outsized.
