2014 vintage. From the (great) pre-Treasury period, this is a classic Haut-Médoc, well-situated between Giscours and Cantemerle. Solid colour, with little evolution for the vintage. Cassis, cedar, violets and spices. — 5 days ago

9.2

In a great spot if you like savory wines. Fruit and acidity have calmed, allowing a gamey aroma profile of cured meats and iodine to come through. It still has some dark plum and cherry but showing the age and complex bouquet which is quite nice. Medium plus bodied, it has nice texture with an approachable ABV at 13.5%. — a month ago

2016 vintage. Last tasted 10.09.21 (9.2), 8.23.21 (9.2), 7.26.21 (9.2), 7.11.21 (9.2) and 6.29.21 (9.2). Something to be said for consistency but forgot what that was exactly. Medium-medium heavy body. Anyway, nice value BDX and the previously reticent, hitherto hidden, legendary tannins finally emerged from a lengthy vacation so more back end structure. Front and mid-palates unchanged and still notable for their intensity. 7.24.26. — 16 hours ago

I loved the flavor and finish of this. Great smell and one of the few deeper reds I can drink without food—but also thoroughly enjoyed it with our surf and turf dinner. Would buy again for a dinner party wine. — a month ago
