  June 15, 2019 - Cabernet Sauvignon 45%, Merlot 41%, Cabernet Franc 9% and Petit Verdot 5%
  
  Medium body, deep garnet color. Intense ripe black fruits complements by cigar box aroma. Very refined and rounding palate of blueberry and black currants with lingering spicy finish. Very charm and delicate wine. Exceptionally balanced, rich and complex but elegant, exquisite and silky, still refreshing berries acidity and ripe tannins. Food friendly, tasted with poultry stewed in wine and grilled vegetables. Serve 17º - 22º. Open two hours ahead. Drink now and next five/six years.

  September 9, 2017 - Tasted at the Chateau.
  CS 45%, M 41%, CF 9%, PV 5%
  
  Deep garnet, fresh and semi opaque, minimal sign of age.
  
  Nose of blackberry, and black currant with slight hint of savory herb, espresso, and nuttiness.
  
  Structured still. Med body, med plus tannin, dry. Black fruits follows through from the bouquet. Slight hint of development - forest floor, manure, seaweed but still dominate by fruit for now.
  
  Should be ready in 3-5 years time top. Pleasant. 88+

  April 17, 2017 - 90/100 In the aroma there are currant tones, hedgehogs, and plum. Full-bodied, harmonious in taste, with silky tannins and berry tints in aftertaste.
