March 13, 2018 - Dark and inky especially for the year and the maker. Lovely bouquet. V soft fruit with maybe too much supporting tannin structure dominating. Also a bit hollow in the middle.

October 15, 2014 - Cacao, cassis, kirsh, truffe. Un boisé vanillé en bouche qui a du être assez lourd dans la jeunesse du vin mais qui c'est intégré. Pas un monstre mais équilibré et très correct pour le prix.

May 31, 2014 - Paul's birthday (@ PdV): Juicy cassis, some earth, a pleasant touch of barnyard, firm but good acidity, some bitterness. Not extremely concentrated, but certainly very pleasant. Ready now - 2015.

June 19, 2011 - Solid but unspectacular Bordeaux. Menthol, game meats, farmyard and some dark cherry fruits on the nose. Thinnish mouth feel, more oak, cinnamon spice and brambliness coming through on the palate. Nice soft tannins but the finish drops off very quickly. Perfectly serviceable but I have had better Bordeaux for the money.
