Tasting Notes
A tangy and minerally red with a salty, chalky character under the blue fruits. Medium to full body and a chewy finish. Mar 2017, www.jamessuckling.com

This is a perfumed, juicy wine, with a dry core that's balanced by crisp black-currant fruit. It's spicy, fruity and fresh in bright acidity. Structured, yet fruity, the balance is just right. Apr 2017, Roger Voss, www.wineenthusiast.com
Delightful raspberry and red currant preserve notes race through, flecked with light anise and fruitcake hints. Stays fresh through the finish. Apr 2017, James Molesworth, www.winespectator.com
2018 will be the first certified biodynamic vintage, converted thanks to François Pinault's minority (so far) participation in this plus Siaurac (Lalande de Pomerol) and Le Prieuré (St-Émilion). The woman who converted Latour and Grilletto to biodynamics did the same here. Rather sumptuous texture. Lots of freshness too. Very pleasing indeed.
