89/100
Produced from 100% Merlot, the wine is soft, medium-bodied, easy-drinking and ready to deliver its sweet, plums with a dash of cocoa as soon as the wine hits the stores. Drink from 2024-2031.

Bright, fresh and fruity with a raspberry, smoke and espresso edge to the crisp, juicy red fruit on the palate. Drink from 2023-2032. 87-89

This has blackberry, licorice, and black pepper on the nose with medium high acidity, soft tannins, and a long finish. Tertiary notes (leather and mushroom) are just coming on. Delicious now, should become more complex and enjoyable with 3 - 5 more years in the cellar. Will wait on next bottle.

This had a nice nose, very St Emillion but was disappointing on first tasting and only got worse. Very acidic and at 14% way too alcoholic, this just obliterated any subtlety in the flavours
