  One year on from my previous bottle, and quite a difference. The wine is opening out, into an impressively concentrated Graves. Still years of life left and probably another 2-3 before hitting the optimal drinking window, but with a good decant, this is now showing well. Good value if you paid about €14.

  Encore un peu jeune. Joli vin sur le noyau de cerise et de beaux tanins. Bon RQP

  If you're going to try this now, give it a couple hours of air. Really makes a world of difference.

  Still pretty closed, but after about 2-3 hours of aeration, opens out into a good mid-level Graves, although with nothing memorable to offer. A couple more years might bring some more development and interest. In the meantime, the similarly named Chateau Ferrande 2015 is a better bottle for 2020.

  From a magnum. Pretty solid for the price, has some eucalyptus notes, boysenberry fruit and some minerality. Nothing special but attractive enough.
