    March 29, 2018 - Bouteille et bouchon en parfaite condition. Mid neck. Ouvert et bu. Grenat moyen avec une légère dilution sur les bords.
    Au nez, les arômes sont de type secondaire, menthol, cèdre, expresso.
    En bouche, le vin se montre de constitution moyenne, de belle minéralité, un peu végétal aussi, avec une assez bonne longueur.
    Style traditionnel.
    A boire mais pas du tout en fin de parcours.

    January 2, 2014 - Dark plums and red fruits, smoky and mineral. Refined, subtle medium- bodied St -Emilion.

    December 22, 2013 - Melvyn and the cool notes. Cool menthol notes, plums and red fruits, overlaid with subtle mineral and smoky notes. An absolute delight. Refined, medium- bodied St -Emilion, quietly classy with the accent on restraint. Such a refreshing change from some modern, grotesque right bank creations. This is drinking sublimely well now, and should continue to do so over the next five plus years.
