    April 24, 2024 - Very nice second label offering from this producer. Classic St Julian bottle with cassis, cedar notes. In a good drinking window with a short decant

    September 18, 2023 - Belle richesse du fruits mure, meme si il possède seulement 25% de merlot, je trouve qu'il est en avant plan. Acidité a point, tannins présent mais bien intégré, la qualité du fruit est excellente, superbe Bordeaux à point.

    August 25, 2023 - Took 2 hours to open up, but when it did, it was very good. Ripe, but restrained at the same time. Classy.
