Simple, red cherries and plums. Medium finish...classic wet leaves, forest floor. Still needs time, but love the elegance of Saint Julien.

Dark crimson and granate red, quite beautiful. Perfumy, where some oak comes to your nose first, with delicious gooseberry aromas and blackberry jam. This wine really unfolds in your palate, starting with great presence upon entrance. Very full bodied and jammy texture. All the berries are here: strawberry, raspberry, wild fruits, very fruit forward wine, with remarkable balance in structure, and fruit, and grip, and acidity. Well made! Great quality grapes here, hadled with care, attention and craftmanship. If only the oak wasn't too, too present. 91 pts.
