Quite nice soft berry flavours and floral aromas, with sufficient acidity and soft tannins. Drinking well now, and should continue to do so for a few years at the least. But not a long term keeper if cellar space is at a premium. Solid QPR, especially for Bordeaux.

After 3hr decant, surprisingly good for a cru bourgeois at this price. Solid wine, with lovely fruits and sufficient acidity. Though it is vinified for early consumption- drink now or hold several years

Way too young, but I needed to gauge its potential over several days. Characteristic Rhône aromas, with ripe berry fruits, a bit of cocoa, and attractive herbal notes on the finish. Solid QPR for Northern Rhône. Hold for another year or two at the very least before trying the next bottle.
