  December 23, 2021 - I was recommended this wine by a chum who knew about its origins and the pedigree of its vines. It meant nothing to me but I trust him. He said cellar it for 10 years and I cant remember what I paid.
  Still purple to its core with no obvious fading to the rim, and dripping with legs. Too young?
  Confirmed on the palate. Decanted into my Eto.
  Much better on day two.
  There's a rich fruity nose with a beguiling hint of something special that I couldn't quite place - spice, dark ripe fruit (mulberry?), and noticeable but not harsh tannin.
  
  With food - sausage pasta - it was lovely.
  
  Keep for more tertiary characteristics to develop but if you like fruit forward, decant for a few hours and enjoy now.

  May 21, 2018 - Made from a blend of 61% Merlot and 39% Cabernet Franc, the wine is supple, soft, earthy and showing a minty, tobacco edge to the sweet, soft, cherries and plums at its core.

  April 29, 2016 - Acte 7, the seventh vintage of this wine which takes its name from the first letter of the famous owner’s last name, Jacques and Sylvie Guinaudeau, who also own Chateau Lafleur in Pomerol is ready to go. The blend of 61% Merlot and 39% Cabernet Franc is forward, softly textured, with silky tannins and a sweet, juicy mouthful of supple, fresh, cherries and minerality in the finish.
