Truncated dinner party notes. Surprised this was still kicking as vigorously as it is. Yes, still red fruit, but with secondary and tertiary notes adding so much complexity. Delicious. — 7 months ago

Blend of 60% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep Ruby red color with aromas of dark black fruit, and a slight herb nose. On the palate flavors of blackberry, currant and raspberry, with tobacco and herbs. Fine grainy tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, spice and a touch of earthy mineral notes. — a year ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Very fresh nose of red berries, and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with plums, cherries, red currants, earth, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 6 year old Merlot from Saint Emilion is still very young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Elegant and complex, but a little restrained now.

A good quality wine. Very fresh and young tasting, and a good food wine.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

A blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$30. — 7 months ago

2018 vintage. 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Nathalie d'Espagne took over in 2013 and the wines have gained in finesse ever since. Organically farmed since 2009. Beautiful nose with flowers, crushed strawberries, coffee, and subtle spices. In the mouth it displays juicy red fruit, spices and an intriguing minerality on the finish. Fine length too. Very good value for Pomerol. Abv. 13,5%. — 7 months ago

1985 vintage. A nice surprise and another testimony to the ageing potential of the great 1985 vintage. Still a solid colour at 37 years old. Smoke and cedar wood, good concentration of dried fruits and spices. There is complexity and length, well worth seeking out if you like older wines. — 3 years ago
