Beautiful color of dark ruby with a wide reddish rim.
Strong nose of black currants, black plums, cooked cherries, dried fruits, cedar, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco and herbs.
Full bodied and soft, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate and fruit forward with blackberries, black currants, black plums, cherries, cedar, spices, dark chocolates, licorice, coffee, peppercorn, light eucalyptus, herbs, light vegetables, earth and black tea.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This 20 year old Merlot from Saint Emilion is absolutely fantastic now. Elegant, chocolatey and rich.
Drinking beautifully right out of the bottle, extracted and complex. Nicely balanced and powerful, with a great mouthfeel.
Wine Advocate 98 points.
Drinking it with the wine maker, from his personal cellar, makes it even more special for me.
Drinking at its peak, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 10 years.
Fruit forward and good by itself as a sipping wine.
A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Aged in New French oak barrels for 18 months.

No formal notes . Ruby garnet and narrow garnet rim . This shows some development , with red fruit dominating , red plum , cherry, roasted red pepper . On the palate this is quite elegante, again the red fruit character, ripe cherry , red plum . Quite fresh acidity and rounded tannins , good spicy finish . Showing well now , and I would imagine over the next 5 or so years . Quite a user friendly , elegant Margaux , rounded fruit but enough freshness to balance , alcohol a little noticable , so would serve slightly cooler . Emirates Business Class
