Léon Nony bought vineyard in 1939, after his death in 1959, his son, Michel, then his grandson, Jean-Marc, continued his work. Blend of mostly Merlot with small amounts of Cab Franc & Cab Sauv, aged in French oak (25% new). Dark Ruby, aromas of dark berry fruits and smoky cedar notes. On the palate ripe blackberry flavor with toasty oak, spice & cacao. Fine tannins, ok balance, medium+ finish ending with an oaky earthy character. Ok for price, drink now, no further aging benefit.

Deep Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits and pepper spice. On the palate flavors of black fruits and spicy herbal notes. Lively acidity, firm tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, cacao and spicy oak.

An approachable Bordeaux from Lalande Pomerol (Right Bank), the V’17 is blended at 80% Merlot and 20% Cab Franc, that reflects on the straightforwardness from the very beginning, quite aromatic, tons of influences of ripe dark fruit, mulberry with a nice acidity balance. The nose and the palate concours on the intensity back fruit ripeness, a hint plummy that yields freshness that also makes it vibrant and uplifting. The mouthfeel pleases even the most sophisticated tastebuds.
Loved the incorporated and tannins structure with a polish and smooth finish. Drink now, as it is still cruising on its prime time. Cheers!

Dark fruit, earth. Seemed out of balance, thin and bitter on palate. Flat finish. High alcohol content.
