January 22, 2024 - Robe d'un beau rubis. Un nez de fruits rouges, de mûres, de tabac. La bouche est soyeuse, les tanins bien présents mais rond. Une belle finale sur les fruits. Le boisé est bien intégré. J'aime.

November 3, 2020 - Muted nose to start, the wine has a slight modern feel to it, light wood treatment obviously, opens up nicely though with a great texture and feel of tannins, nice length. 89-90
Un nez muet au départ avec un vin plus moderne, touche boisée mais qui s’ouvre par contre très bien et surtout une superbe texture de tannins en bouche, très bon 89-90 -

March 4, 2020 - C'est bien comme vin, ca se boit tout seul et c'est très typique Bordeaux rive-droite, mais il manque une certaine identité. Tout de même, beau vin.

November 4, 2019 - Big color.
Nose > Big rich fruit. Cassis, mulberry, licorice.
Palate > Very big rich wine. Lovely deep, spicy dark, ripe, luscious fruit. Ripe, rich, grippy tannins.
Nice new oak, balanced by fruit, richness, tannins. Med+ intensity. Impressive.

38 hl/hc (2.4 tons/acre)

October 28, 2019 - Tasted at The Wine Soiciety's Bordeaux tasting, London. Medium orangey ruby colour. Fresh fruit, red berries, plummy. Soft and subtle palate, blueberries, not huge depth. Medium length.
