Vintage 2010 | black colour. Classic smell. Licorice root. Laurel. Sultry mouthfeel. Good acidity. This wine excels in elegance. Fruit in aftertaste.

Vintage 2010 / very expressive, cherriesliquor, perfumed, mocca, awesome balance. Tasted next to 2001 (more serious) this 2010 is more frivolous. A high swallow factor!

Vintage 2001 / Velvety, silksoft, awesome balance. I miss the stubborness of Madiran, but that does not affect my appreciation!

Absolutely delicious. Fully developed nose of pipe tobacco, roasted herbs, old leather. Gamy and rustic. Integrated, persistent tannins and massive structure. Very Lengthy dry finish.

Impressive power and minerality. Here is where Soutwest France shines.

Dense and mineral-packed. Crushed red and black plums, blood, sweat, tobacco. Notes of violets and tinder box in the finish. Huge wine with massive tannic frame. Impressive.

The prestige of SW France. Really beautiful but still such a young wine for what it is.
