  Sans note;
  Bouquet sur le cassis, les mûres & les épices. Invitant.
  La bouche est somme toute sec, un peu mince. Le fruité est acidulé & disons que cela manque de profondeur. La structure y est mais cette dernière est peu "enrobée" par des saveurs...

  Excellent, but could wait 3-5 years!

  75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot
  
  Deep dark red, compact rim, opaque.
  
  Aromatics show soft but refreshing red fruit, perfume of cedary oak, dry Italian herb
  
  Pleasantly tannic with grippy sensation, medium ripe sweet red fruits, cooking spices, underearth, clean finish.
  
  It took about half an hour to open up. Initially, the wine was short, tart, and reductive. But after half an hour, it starts to shine. Ok for the vintage, however with the current price, it might not be the best QPR. '13 Bordeaux should be ready across the board now. Drink now and over the next 3-5 years before the fruits fade. 90.

  Ready to go. Still well balanced, tannins now on the softer side but still showing a pleasant ripeness.

  Robe rubis dense;
  Nez élégant, subtil, sur un fruité sombre comme le cassis & la cerise. Légère touche de cèdre & une impression de graphie en arrière plan. Les épices complètent un bouquet agréable.
  Bouche agréable, relativement légère versus les attentes qu'on pourrait avoir en ouvrant un Saint-Estèphe... Somme toute harmonieux, sur un fruité sombre, une acidité bien présente, une finale relativement longue sur des impressions de poussières de roches & d'épices. Les tannins sont fins, nombreux & assèchent la finale. Bref, assez harmonieux & agréable.
