Ce que l'on attends d'un bordeaux, magnifique tension et un beau fruit — a month ago
2019 vintage. The first vintage certified as organic and a great effort. Merlot dominates (62% of the vineyards, with 29% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot). Medium-bodied, elegant and fresh. Already very attractive, but should be better in 2 to 3 years. Eric Boissenot consults. Abv. 13%. — 2 months ago
one of the most memorable bottles of old bordeaux i’ve had. 36 years old and in a perfect drinking window. the leather, tobacco leaf, cigar box, tannin is all light and delicate at this point. hard to describe in words but just a beautiful bottle, really a pleasure to drink. — a month ago
De la mûre au nez entre autres et faisant plus rive droite et merlot à la première impression. Bel équilibre en bouche, rien ne cloche, Encore assez puissant mais avec des tannins quand même très approchables, belle finale ayant de la poigne mais avec un petit côté un peu rustique. 90-91
Blind tasting lunch 2009 theme. Called right bank, totally missed as it had a more Merlot like nose and some blackberries and some violets. Still powerful with grippy tannins, but overall good balance, just a slightly rustic finish. — a month ago

Brownish red. Surprisingly light bodied.. Blackcurrant, plum, cloves, liquorice. Medium tannins giving it some structure. — 11 days ago
Very solid inexpensive Left Banker. 50/50 Cab Merlot. Nose has rich plummy fruit, warm gravel, a little cigar box, a little twiggy underbrush. In the mouth it’s full but tight. Zingy acids for a 14.5 wine. A fair amount of tannin. Flavors feature loads of gravelly earth and bright cherry/berry fruit in a bone-dry package. Nice job! — 2 months ago

First sip after opening was incredibly watery and light.
Took about 3 hours to open up and show. And then it was exactly as expected with great depth and fruit. Solid backbone and balance.
