Community Tasting Notes 1

    May 5, 2018 - Reasonably appetising because this particular vintage but with a modern style, very four-squared. On the nose, aromas of graphite, black fruit and ferrous memories predominate. By the way, wood is still latent.
    On the palate is more direct and although it retains density and a silky texture, both alcohol (14 ABV) and acidity are not very well-integrated.
    Another Saint Emilion satellite that does not disappoint.

    Razonablemente apetecible por la añada pero de un estilo moderno, muy cuadriculado. En nariz predominan aromas a grafito, a fruta negra y a recuerdos ferrosos. Por cierto, la madera sigue latente.
    Al paladar es más directo y aunque conserva densidad y una textura sedosa tanto el alcohol (14%) como la acidez no están bien integrados.
    Otro satellite de Saint Emilion que no defrauda.
