Very solid,although not a textbook Bordeaux... nice black cherry and black currant fruit up front on the nose and palate. Medium to full bodied with a nice finish. The mineral and earth characteristics of a typical Bordeaux were very much secondary in this wine.

Drunk with beef cuvette. Mature notes in nose and on the pallate. Very nicely integrated oak. Perfect timing for drinking.

A decent wine with good overall balance, but this bottle was brett-affected - enough so as to hide the fruit almost completely.

Very nice. Tons of bright fruit. Not too much of the Bordeaux characteristics. Nice, easy, mellow.

Lovely crushed fruit (bilberries, raspberries), lovely oak, hint of vanilla, open, forward, elegant and refined.
