Youthful and fresh, at the moment the wine is holding its cards close to its vest. With coaxing, you find chocolate mint, flowers, and cherries in the nose. Medium-bodied, the wine is soft and creamy on the palate. The finish is quite chalky, with a strong, refreshing mint note on the backend. Drink from 2023-2032.

This just isn't bringing it. Even with air, very flat affect fruit and a yeasty component. Plums and some Pomerol jazz starts to emerge. Lighter than usual FC. Feels like midnight may bring it around but we shall see.

Medium bodied, fresh, sweet and already showing off its black raspberry, floral, truffle and licorice filled character. Silky, and sweet, this will show well young and age for 20 years without trouble. The wine is made from a blend of 94% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc reaching 14% alcohol.
