  Fresher than the last bottle, this was excellent. Blackberry and dark cherry aromas, preceding a very cool and fresh mouthful of the same, with blackcurrant and raspberry flavours giving it a well-rounded but rising middle section, and a long, sappy finish.
  I was surprised by the taste profile, much less rich and much more fresh than previous bottles - I could really taste the 20% Cabernet Franc.

  Not quite as good as it was three years ago, but still a very enjoyable wine. The soft brambly fruit has become a little more citrussy and there's a lack of bass in the mix, but the elegance is still there. Rich, but not overly so. This is definitely a "modern" St.Emilion but a very good example of one.

  Briefly decanted. Perfect barely-stained cork. Deep opaque black-red colour with no hint of lightening even at the edges. Nose is attractively deep red and black currant fruit with subtle and elegant blueberry giving additional dimension and lovely warm cedar and peaty loam. Palate is medium weight, really welcoming warm allspice and slightly tart but still somehow sweet cranberry/strawberry mid-palate fruit. Still lots of tannin on a dry, earthy, brambly and bitter black chocolate finish which is very Saint-Emilon but which softens and deepens with extended time in the glass. Wow, so pleased I have kept my hands off this since my 3 bottles in 2009-2012. Despite the vintage, this wine can only improve significantly over the next 5-10 years. Could be “wow” in the future. 90+

  Sadly the last bottle: a classic St.Emilion in all the right senses, a heady combination of soft, brambly fruit, with a middle section of strawberry and notes of raspberry on the finish. Great elegance and finesse, rather like a top Margaux but with a more beguiling, sweet taste. Definitely better than the 00 at a lot less. Plenty of time left.
