Did this on a blind tasting - thought it was a Saint Julien. Balanced mix of cab sauv and Merlot.. medium bodied, structured.. notes of blackcurrant, plum, liquorice, forest floor. Great potential! — 6 months ago

Lovely wine that came as a surprise- brought wrapped from a cellar and was expecting somewhat different (a Chateau L'if). Sommelier says this was the worst cork he ever extracted. Luckily he saved it. Lots of sediment as it is not a fined- which is part of the charm. Was expecting it to still have some tightness, but was easy not long after decanting. 45 min later it was already nicely opened. Heavy staining for a surprisingly lighter body than what you'd expect. I'd liken it to a summer velvet vs a heavy winter velvet. (This is NOT on the restaurant's list- we brought it and paid corkage) — 9 years ago

Base wine from new Jaques Thienpont project L'hetre, also known from Le Pin and L'if. Smooth, easy drinking merlot which is open for business. Cedar and black fruit, leather — 5 years ago
