90 Points
Tuesday, March 14, 2023 - 95% Merlot, 5% PV
Dark fruits, cassis, ripe and bright. some dark herbal, liquorice and a little earth hint from mid-palate to ending. round and smooth texture, supple tannins, medium body with a concentrated fruity core, sweet, even a little jammy. typical Merlot based Bordeaux flavours, an easy drinking opening but complete with some complexity.
JS 92, JD 90, WE 89, JL 88, TA 89
Ap 5/5, Ar 12/15, Palate 16/20, Overall 3+4/10
Total 90/100
