Dark red, black core --- Nose soft, dark fruit, cardboard, hint of mahogany, some nutty aspects, red currant, blueberry, butter cream aspects --- Palate fresh, elegant, dark fruit notes, elegant wood notes, some ripe sour cherry, nice tartness, fine saltiness, some cocoa, blueberry, dark chocolate --- Finishes pretty long on pure elegance, nice composition of fruit, wood and minerality. Nice vine, tasty, at its peak, delicious. 92-93.

Lucia comes from a 3.06-hectare vineyard, part of which was planted in 1901 to 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The wine expresses licorice, black cherry and spice aromas. Plushly textured and filled with ripe jammy berries, with its open style, this wine should be fun to drink shortly after release. 91-93 Pts

served 2 hours after decanting. Nose was a little off, with smoky notes but generally a little stinky.

Bordeaux 2010 tasting (Wine Route, Savion): dark red-black
elegant mineral aroma
med-full bodied, round & soft tannins, a bit dry, woody, lacks complexity.
