Solid ruby. Classic nose, fruit driven and rich yet fresh. Some cask and earth/leather. Integrated. Pleasant. Good, smooth taste of ripe fruit, nutmeg, spiced cherry. Slight alcoholic zap and somewhat linear, but very fair price for a maturing Bordeaux. Give at least 10-15 min out of bottle to settle, still improving after a couple of hours. Simple and enjoyable. Drinks really well with red meat and vegetables. Too easy to finish. Recommended.

Fruit plenty, tasty mid-range red bordeaux. With hours decant it opened up, but tannins still to the forefront. Drinking well now, but should keep for few more years. Good qpr.

Un beau secret qui dormait! Tout en équilibre, il laisse un merveilleux goût lors d'une des plus finales que j'ai dégustée depuis fort longtemps.

Relatively simple medium bodied Bordeaux. Nice fruit. Drinking well. Good value.

Beau vin, fin et subtil. Manque un peu de caractère.
