2016 vintage. This estate is supervised by Antoine Moueix who also owns Patache d'Aux (Médoc), Hanteillan and Liversan (Haut-Médoc), Capet Guillier and Tour de Capet (Saint-Emilion) and a couple of Bordeaux Supérieur estates. 60% merlot, 30 % cabernet sauvignon, 8% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. Mechanical harvest. Cassis and raspberry with a hint of clove. Supple fruity start, followed by some spiciness and slightly rough greenish finish with alcohol shining through (abv. 13,%). Decent value at 9.90 euro if unexciting in a very exciting Bordeaux vintage (on both banks).
