Walkaround tasting so just short notes : This wine is made of 50% Merlot, 49% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 80% in new French oak. Extremely full bodied and delicious with ripe dark berries, licorice and beautiful oak and cedar. Beautiful acidity and round tannin and also a pleasant touch of sweetness. Enormously tasty and beautiful wine. Already a pleasure, but around 2035 this wine will probably be even more impressive. 95 - 96+

With a serious depth of color, the wine pops from the glass with its array of flowers, black, red and blue fruits, chocolate, licorice, Indian spices and oceanic fragrances. The wine is full-bodied, rich, concentrated and intense, with lusciously-textured layers of perfectly black and red fruits, crushed rocks, chocolate and espresso on the mid-palate that stick with you through to the finish. This is simply stunning from start to finish. With all of its ripe fruits, it will be fabulous …

The 2020 vintage UGCB tasting in Amsterdam 03/06/2023 (Amsterdam) : Has personality, from everything just a bit more than most of its colleagues with its black currants and smooth red fruit, a nice midtaste, good bitters and noticeable but edible tannins.

(50% Cabernet Franc, 49% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Alkohol) Würzige Nase, deutlich Cabernet Franc, dazu Kalkstein, dunkle Frucht, exotische Gewürze. Im Gaumen frisch und würzig, ausgezeichnete Tanninqualität, viel Druck und Körper, der Alkohol ist spürbar, jedoch gut verpackt, solange man den Wein nicht zu warm serviert. Sehr langes, wiederum von einer lehmig-kalkigen Mineralik und dunkler Frucht geprägtes Finale. 2025-2045 (Verkostet am 8. November 2022 in Zürich) www.vvwine.ch

Soft, medium-bodied, forward and fresh with loads of red plums and a touch of cocoa on the backend, this will be quite easy to enjoy on release while waiting for the Grand Vin to mature. Drink from 2023-2027. 87-89

92-94 vvPunkte (50% Cabernet Franc, 49% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Alkohol) Sehr würzige, vom Cabernet Franc geprägte Nase, ein schöner Duft, zeigt Brombeere, Blaubeere, Kirschen, Kardamom. Im Gaumen straff, dicht und konzentriert, ein Mund voll Wein, mit markanter Struktur, einer reifen, jedoch knackigen Frucht und einer sehr guten Säure, zeigt Zug und trotz hohem Alkohol eine gewisse Frische, keine Trinkmarmelade sondern ein durchaus eleganter Wein mit guten Anlagen. 2025-2040+ (April/Mai 2021) vvWine.ch

The wine is forward, bright, crisp, fresh, juicy and sweet. It is medium bodied with a core of red plums, licorice, cocoa and spicy kirsch with soft textures that is going to be just great on release. 88-90

Deeply colored, the wine jumps from the glass with flowers, licorice, chocolate, spice-box, black cherry, plum liqueur and crushed stone nuances in the perfume. Full-bodied, velvet-textured, silky and vibrant, the finish has real staying power, purity and energy, leaving you with layers of chocolate-coated plums, espresso, spice and herbs on the backend. Concentrated, long and deep, give this 7-8 years in the cellar and it is really going to rock. 95-97

Very very deep. Broad and open ‘green beans’ herby note, slightly spicy, with a touch of vapour. Feels ripe yet elegant, with good lift and freshness. Quite perfumed. Silky attack, some fragrant espresso – open feel. Broad mineral grip and good intensity, fresh tannins, long. Elegance and power, layered and serious.

2020 First Look : Big, somewhat blowsy nose, but a very mineral and berry palate, finishing chocolatey and a bit warm. 84-85

Open feel to the nose, which displays some rusticity – a touch of the barnyard, before becoming more floral, quite pretty, juicy and spicy. Concentrated and intense in the mouth, plenty of richness and structure to match, there is a touch of liquorice and this is very long. Serious stuff.

Beautiful bouquet with dark and red berries and luxurious oak. On the palate red and dark berries as well, sweet spices and a beautiful balance between acidity and sweetness. Beautiful wine.
