September 11, 2023 - St. Emilion Grand Cru Classés Walkaround tasting, so just short notes (Amsterdam): 70% Merlot and 30% Bouchet(Cabernet Franc). Beautiful, somewhat rustic bouquet and red as well as dark berries. Same on the palate, juicy acidity and round tannin. Already entering its young maturity stage. Beautiful wine.

February 16, 2022 - Shows a big amount of oak power to it. But still with good clip on the palate as well.

February 21, 2021 - Medium ruby red with a garnet hue. Layered nose with red cherries, cocoa, and pencil shavings. Medium tannins (6.5/10) with a medium plus to full body. A bit dry on the palate with dusted cherries, leather, black currants, a hint of greenery and crushed gravel. Long finish. Drink till 2030.

April 8, 2020 - A little bit austere but loads of structure and promise for the future. Decant needed or 5 years
