Score 17/20 · Drink 2020-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Jun 2019

52% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot. 30% new oak for 12 months. Dark blackish crimson. Sweet and fresh. Mouth-filling, sweet and appealing on the palate with just a little tannin left. Proper wine with real length. Very sweet and beguiling. Impressively persistent. (JR)

The floral aromatics in this 2012 Deyrem Valentin are enticing and complex. On the palate, the wine is supple-textured and medium-bodied, with loads of blue and dark fruits, silky tannins and surprising complexity and elegance. This medium-bodied, beautifully formed Margaux should drink nicely for 7-8 years, although there’s no reason to defer your gratification.

Moderate black fruit which is rapidly outflanked by tannin on the palate. Has enough purity and intensity to age well though. (RH)
