Couleur rubis foncé. Aux arômes de menthe et de thym, suit un beau petit fruit de prune sur un fond de groseille. L'acidité est en retrait, mais l'ensemble demeure rafraichissant, savoureux et plaisant.
Parfaitement à point à ses 13 ans.

Too sweet & rich on opening, but settled nicely after around 30 mins, when a more savoury edge came through. Lacks a bit of edge for me. Decent right bank Bdx style though and decent value.

Medium/deep ruby core, narrow pale ruby rim. Nose shows fresh red fruit, vanilla, notes of plum. Medium/full bodied on the palate, nicely creamy red fruit (strawberry), plum, reasonable acidity, touch of grip on the medium length finish which shows just a touch of earth. This is not overly complex, long or sophisticated but is well balanced with tasty fruit and made a nice mid-week drink. Now and for the next 3-4 years.

Grenat with lighter rim. Nice nose with figs. Strong mouth quitte full of tannins. Quite a Nice Bordeaux that migth get even better in a few years.

Very nice. Lived nicely through the years. Still got fruit and character. Very good quality for the price
