A great option as a 2nd brand, still delivers a truly unique and balanced wine based on Merlot, Cab Franc and Cab Sauv., a bit less full-bodied that the usual Figeac. Loved the progression as it opens, nicely complex, very long finish and refined texture and solid mouthfeel. Never disappoints! — 3 months ago

This is surprisingly good for a bargain-priced St. Emmie. Nose shows clear, ripe plummy Merlot fruit, some clay-inflected earth, some underbrush, and subtle, pleasant vegetal note. Very nice balance and mouthfeel. Not a bruiser, but more on the elegant side. Fruit, tannin, acids all nicely dancing together. I like this a lot! — 5 months ago

Medium ruby with quite narrow garnet rim . Quite rich and round on the nose , blackberry , cassis , touch of chocolate , coffee and dark cherry , red plum . Touch of warmth noticable . On the palate this is quite rich also with juicy dark fruits , blackberry , cassis , dark plum and a touch of grafite and cocoa , dry spice stained finish . Rounded sweet tannin and just balanced acidity . Only ok length , ends perhaps a little flat and overall could do with a little more freshness . Drinking well now , but will continue to show well over the next 5-10 years — 2 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of several days. The 2020 pours a deep purple color with an opaque core and a ruby rim; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of tart and ripe black and red fruits: cassis, black cherry, raspberries, plums, pencil shavings, purple flowers, licorice, iron rich earth and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ with some really nice minerals. This was a surprisingly delightful, classic, if not somewhat rustic Right Bank Bordeaux. I really dig this. Drink now through 2035. — a month ago
