Earthy, silky, fresh and floral, this has really stepped up its game after aging in barrel. Now, you find a soft, supple-textured, round, fresh and refined wine that could be even better in the years to come. Drink from 2025-2050.

2020 Bordeaux UGCB -- the 3rd straight great vintage? Possibly (Washington DC): UGCB Washington DC tasting: 50% Cab Sauvignon/40% Merlot/10% Cabernet Franc Gentle nose of rustic blackberries Smooth easy drinker; soft dark fruit Crowd pleaser while still being a Bordeaux Tasty but simple EMH Blackcat of Bordeaux

(50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, 13% Alkohol) Und noch ein Wein, den ich En Primeur unterschätzt habe. Was für eine Nase, ein Parfüm sondergleichen, viel Floralität, rote Beeren, pure Noblesse. Im Auftakt saftig, frisch, hochelegant, geschliffene Tannine, die Struktur und die Frucht sind in grosser Harmonie zueinander, ungemein knackig, saftig, und mit würzig-fruchtigem Finale ist das ein tänzerisch-eleganter Margaux. Bravo! 2025-2040+ (Verkostet am 8. November 2022 in Zürich) www.vvwine.ch

UGCB tasting Bordeaux 2020 Walkaround tasting so in general just short notes (Beurs van Berlage, Amsterdam.): Some smoke, juicy red berries, a slight touch of sweetness, good acidity and sticky tannin. Beautiful and elegant wine. 91 - 92
