Tasting Notes
A very dark nose. Fine but not pungent. Very concentrated but streamlined with no hard edges. Finishes a little dry but nice for not being forced.

This is very fine for the vintage with a lovely blueberry and currants and spice character. Full body, with well-integrated tannins and a pretty finish. jamessuckling.com
Fine spicy cassis fruit and already showing smooth and elegant ripeness. It will open early but also keep well. Drink 2015-2025. Decanter.com
This has solid depth, with good winey currant and blackberry fruit at the core, picking up briar, anise and sweet tobacco as it moves through the finish. James Molesworth, WineSpectator.com
About the producer
Quality has not necessarily always lived up to this property’s Fourth Growth status, however there have been significant improvements in recent years, with a sustainable focus in the vineyard, and new winery and cellar.
