Tasting notes
Ripe juicy cherries on the nose. Plenty of fruit and freshness on the palate, if not particularly subtle. (JH)

A sleeper of the vintage, this under-the-radar Pessac-Leognan estate has turned out a beautifully concentrated, rich Graves offering notes of strawberries, jammy cherries, cedar and barbecue smoke. Loads of fruit and glycerin, soft tannins and adequate acidity make for a sexy claret to drink over the next 7-8 years.
Fine tannins that finish long and polished on the finish. Enticing ripe fruit too. Perhaps a little hollow on the finish. Wait and see. James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
