Tasted blind. Quite interesting and subtle on the nose but without much structure. A bit awkward and stringy. But lots of effort. (JR)

The 2012 d'Aiguilhe is marked by super-distinctive notes of blood orange, cranberry and white pepper, all of which give the wine considerable energy. The flavors are bright and focused throughout. Drink it over the next handful of years.

One of the better wines from Castillon, this wine, from the Neipperg family, exhibits a dark ruby/purple color, nice spice, earth and red and black fruits. It is medium-bodied with light tannin and a soft underbelly. Drink it over the next 5-7 years. A sleeper.
