2020 vintage. An impressive effort, 65% Merlot and 35% Malbec, aged 12 months in oak and amphorae. Dark red with purplish rim. Black and red fruit with lovely violet aromatics from the Malbec. Power and elegance go hand in hand in the mouth. Succulent fresh fruit, high quality tannin, complexity in length. and Outperforming the 2020 Château du Glana Saint-Julien tasted next to it. This might well be Corinne Chevrier's finest wine ever. Highly recommended. Abv. 14,5%. — 3 years ago

2022 vintage. A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot. One of the rare unclassified Saint-Julien estates, owned by the Meffre family, that started in 1961 with a small vineyard that was part of Saint-Pierre, and was gradually expanded with parcels bought from Lagrange. The quality is on the rise here, and the Meffre family believes this is the best wine the estate has ever produced. Ripe black fruit,a fresh floral note, and very subtle oak. There is a little heat from the high alcohol (15% abv.), but there is fresh acidity to keep the balance, and that prevents the wine from getting jammy. Solid smooth tannic structure and serious length. An estate to watch. — 19 days ago
