A very classic st.emilion flavours on both the nose and palate are all secondary tobacco and cedar. Soft mouthfeel and well balanced. Not much fruit remains

Good, mature wine. Fruity nose, mostly black fruit, some pencil shaves and licorice. Nicely balanced, still has a lot of fruit (brackberry, black currant) to show. It is very smooth, I could wished for more concentration. Maybe it is not a great wine, but shows class and is a pleasure to drink.

with a dark garnet hue and a nose of black cherry, violet, leather and sweet tobacco this is some good juice. it still needs a little time out of the bottle, to incorporate the alcohol, but this juice is well integrated. good finish of dark fruits and bitter cocoa with medium tannin.
