It is a little taut on the finish in its tannic structure and no question majors more heavily on the cool blue fruit character than we have seen with this property in recent years. Seriously enjoyable, a total masterclass in cool climate fruit delivery. Easy to recommend. 73% new oak, harvest september 20 to October 8. No frost impact here and very little mildew, meaning the overall yield was up to 47hl/h, extremely generous for the vintage. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Luscious blueberry aromas vibrate with a dry core of tannins and open black-currant flavors. The wine has an opulent character. layers of acidity and tannins, finishing with dark black fruits. Drink from 2028.-Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast |
