Vintage 2010 | Nicely matured wine with the classic Bordeaux smell: laurel, cedar, vanilla, some red fruit. Good concentration, spicyness. A very good ambassador for its appellation. 80% Merlot 20% CabFranc Oenologist JP Fort , team Michel Roland. | Paired with Beef

Vintage 2010 - laurel, chocolate, sweet tone and lot of power, good acidity, lively wine. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Interesting wine, still potential.

Just getting able to drink, but really needs more time. Earthy nose, but big and fruity on the palate. Cherry, Raspberry, currant and bramble, toast, cedar.

Holding together surprisingly well. Barely brickish color, saddle, tobacco, roasted dried chilis, iodine, soy sauce, and cranberry riding backseat.
