  Slightly less weighty than its stable mate Haut Brusquierres.
  More delicate rather than robust.
  Some red and dark fruit. Excellent texture with a hint of acidity.
  Great early wine which became more sophisticated in the glass in the air.

  clear dark violet. very perfumed nose with floral, herbal and peppery notes. good acidity here, keeping things bright and lively. there's a slight mineral astringency but a welcome sweet note on the palate as well and a nice red berry fruit flavour that holds right through to the finish. i last had one of these two years ago and took similar notes. i feel like this will hold here for a few years. 92+

  Deep violet color. Cherry cola with a smokiness, yet astringent/austere notes on the palate. Lacks some softness, depth and grace.
  
  p.s. leftovers
