  Drink now. Prime drinking window: mellow, smooth, deep and satisfying. Won't get better. Fine wine right now.

  Beautifull Bordeaux red, drank over 2 evenings. Very fresh approach, great fruit with good balance and a smooth, velvety finish. Best with food. On the young side, can age for decades.

  This up-and-coming estate located in the eastern sector of St.Emilion made a very tasty wine in this top vintage on the right bank. 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc planted on limestone and clay soils. A deep warm-red color, a still somewhat restrained bouquet with black fruit, chocolate and some new oak followed by a fine taste with ripe tannins, good acidity and a medium long aftertaste. Very balanced this wine can be served now (I like my wines young) but will gain more complexity over the next 3 or more years and will earn then a point more.

  Decanted two hours. This is one of the few 2015 St Emilion wines that isn’t ready yet. Fruit is tart and young. It is quite thin tasting for a StE. This is probably the worst 15’s StE’s I’ve had so far. Will try in another year and hope for the best.

  very very dry at the outset but interestingly, more fruit comes forward after it opens. Not a ton of complexity but pretty good price value.
