Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2015-2020, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Apr 2012

(Sometimes also labelled Saintem.) 100% Merlot, harvested 15-16 September. 30% new oak. Very strawberry. Just a touch reductive. Fluid fruit across the palate. Salty (from the stress hydrique , apparently). Dryish tannins but with a light hand. (JH)
