2016 vintage. At the time under the reign of the Audoy family, and recently sold, together with their other estate Cos Labory, to neighbour Cos d'Estournel. A good, old-fashioned Saint-Estèphe with rather rustic tannins that offers decent value for the appellation at 15,50 euro, even if I believe that they could have done a better job with this terroir in a great vintage.

Concentrated black fruit with notable freshness and drive. A hint of vanilla on the nose, and a more seasoned oak on the finish. Tannins are balanced; surely has the fruit and structure to age, but is incredibly accessible and expressive today.

QPR out the wazoo. Lots of wet earth and bark and tobacco flavors transitions beautifully to cocoa and plum and cardamom. Medium finish.

A great St.-E blend. Some of the best of Bordeueax right here. Strong but smooth body and a well tapered finish.
