    April 24, 2024 - Rotbeerig, indbesondere Erdbere, Kirsche. Leichtgewichtig. Mit Luft mehr und mehr Aromatik. Ein Leichtgewicht aber elegant und ausgeglichen und voll intakt. Moderate 12,5 % Vol.
    87-89 Punkte. Bis 2026.

    August 3, 2023 - I’m a huge fan of this producer. One of the more under-rated ones in Bordeaux for me. Lots of spices and almost more herbal in style. Enjoyable. Side by side with a 97 Clinet and while it’s not a great year it is drinking really nicely right now.

    November 5, 2022 - Don’t understand the low ratings here. This is a beautiful mature Bordeaux with all the marvellous tertiary aromas of leather, leaves, earth, cocoa etc. Little fruit left. Round and smooth. Good tannic backbone. We decanted for 2 hours and enjoyed for another 2 hours after a light dinner.

    October 17, 2021 - Had at neighborhood restaurant so not sure the storage conditions but would say this is at the end of its drinking window. Drink up!

    February 15, 2021 - Cedar, cigar box, cherry, raspberry and graphite notes. Opens up very earthy, but grows quite classic with air. Cherry, cedar,, rose petals and nice inner mouth perfume. A lighter and less generous expression of the site, but very enjoyable St Estephe. A success given the vintage.
