March 9, 2024 - Black cherries, cocoa, mint, licorice, espresso and floral essences pop in the nose. On the palate, the wine is forward, lifted, but not quite high-toned, finishing with orange citrus, red cherries, pepper and red plums with a touch of chalk that comes in at the end of the finish. Drink from 2024-2036.

June 20, 2022 - (86-88 vvPunkte) Kräftige Farbe, recht hohe Viskosität. Die Nase zeigt reiffruchtige, pflaumige Aromen, dazu Schwarzkirschen. Im Gaumen schlank, karger als die Nase vermuten lässt, die Tannine sind markant, dezent trocknend. Im Abgang eher kurz, hallt auf rote Beeren nach. 2025-2032 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022.

May 20, 2022 - Blending 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, produces a forward, soft, polished, fresh, lush, round, fruit-filled wine with loads of ripe, chocolate-coated, plums and black cherries with a touch of salt on the mid-palate and in the endnote. Drink from 2023-2034. 90-92
