Popped, double-decanted, and poured. Engaging right out of the gate. Rich nose shows deep cassis and dark berries, underbrush, graphite, and low-toned minerality. Rich on the attack, with mouth-coating, clingy fruit that later shows persistent savory and dark mineral notes. The tannins are there but are overwhelmed by the fruit. Really nice concentration with zero jamminess and loads of elegance. Nice but subtle acids. Very impressed with this. — 2 days ago

NOSE: cassis, baking chocolate, oregano and pine, a little mint … dandelion? Not sumptuous, but inviting.

TASTE: baking chocolate and clove … dry currant…earth...pine…cassis…PINE. Could age a long while yet, but delicious now and true to style. 93. — 4 days ago

2020 vintage. 75% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. Owned by the Despagne family since 1812, and the current 7th generation (François Despagne) seems to be serious about quality. This 2020 displays impressive aromatics, concentration, depth, and precision, with fresh acidity balancing the 15% abv. — 17 days ago

Very expressive chalkiness, probably more evident thanks to a a gentle extraction that makes the wine very elegant. Long lovely subtle and tingling finish — 9 days ago
