Lots of spiced wood, with sweet blackberry fruits. The wine is initially soft, but the tannins do kick in. The fruit finally has vivid freshness. (8/ 2010)
Wood spice, roasted herbs and black currants are present in this solidly made, supple blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. (A member of the Association of Crus Bourgeois du Medoc.) (2/ 2012)
Inky ruby. Captivating aromas of strawberry, violet, graphite and sexy new oak. Enters very smooth, offering a beautifully tactile mouth feel and flavors of very ripe plum and red cherry complicated by sandalwood and cinnamon. An in-your-face yet serious style of wine that will be perfect for short-term drinking. The long finish is a bit warm and saline. (6/ 2010)
This focused red shows a thread of savory herb holding together the red currant, plum and pomegranate flavors. A nice stony edge marks the finish. Drink now through 2013. (Web-2012)
*V Spicy nose and sexy entry. Lovely middle. Good richness and length. Ralph: Elegant, fresh and honest.
