Not bad for a CdP blanc, which is still not that good. — 18 days ago
Crimson with a cherry red tinge. A certain pong on the nose - a cowyard note but not off putting - I like it. On the medium bodied palate black fruits and sour cherry. Highly savoury on the palate. The cowyard notes remained throughout the 3 to 4 hour time frame to consume the bottle. I drink very few Loire Valley reds but on the basis of this wine I should drink more. — a month ago
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Fruity nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing black currants, plums, licorice, light oak, chocolates, herbs, coffee, earth, spices, tobacco leaf and black tea.
Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Bordeaux is still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself.
Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex and interesting. Fruit forward and elegant.
Easy drinking at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. Aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.
