Medium lemon yellow . Quite young appearance still quite a bit of oak on the nose , then lemon rind , touch of honey , wax , slightly herbal touch. Intense on the palate with lemon rind , wax and honied notes . Quite rich palate , but with good balancing acidity and grip, balanced alcohol . Medium length , slightly toasty finish . Still young , drinkable now and over the 10 years. — 2 months ago
2014 vintage. Tasted six times in the last 3.5 years. Mostly a mix of 9.3-9.4 scores with most of the experiences decanted. This time, decanted as well, with the wine in a slight state of transition. Medium-heavy bod with appropriate sed. Great nose and frontal/mid palates, Slightly disjointed on the finish with different flavors working against each other vs together. Tasted after 30 mins and one hour open and thinking a bit more time could have helped. 8.21.24. — 2 months ago

Deep Ruby with aromas of dried fruits and sweet notes. On the palate flavors of dried apricot and blackberry, well balanced with lively acidity, full-bodied, good structured. Long finish, smooth tannins ending with cacao and rich sweet fruit tones. Very nice! — 2 months ago
Some white peach, almond, subtle plum skin. If you don’t see the color, it drinks surprisingly close to a southern Italian white like Greco di tufo — 2 months ago
Deep red fruit, cassis, slightly dusty. Explodes at first, then recedes with time. Wow. — 4 months ago

2022 vintage. Dark red, much deeper colour than usual for this estate. Marie-Laure Lurton seems to have gone for a bit more extraction in this exceptional vintage. More powerful than usual, with a fresh black fruit personality,embedded in a tight, ripe tannic structure. Serious length too. Decanting recommended,as it showed better the next day.
