Tried 3rd time, 1st bottle a dud, 2nd great. Made by Michele d'Aprix, American woman who studied organic chemistry in college, ended up in Bordeaux. Label Chemical equation for calcareous clay soil in right bank of Bordeaux giving a unique character. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits and notes of cedar and spice. Palate shows flavors of blackberry & cherry with tobacco & pepper spice. Drying tannins, medium+ finish, nice balance ending with earthy herbs & black pepper notes. Nice, no ‘15, ‘16 next

Chemical equation on the label is the equation for calcareous clay soil in the right bank of Bordeaux giving a unique character. Deep Ruby with aromas of mushroom and forest floor adding in wafts of berry fruits. The palate follows aromas which masks the fruit, 45 minutes after opening fruit began showing up. Drying tannins, medium finish ending with earthy herbs & black pepper notes.
