Dark Ruby/purple color. Aromas of red and black fruits with spice. On the palate displays cherry and blackberry fruit, somewhat tannic, smokey, combined with heating alcohol. Finish is medium. Drink up, past it’s prime.

Solid value, easy drinking Pessac with crunchy red fruit and a minty edge. A more detailed, elegant style

Had a bottle of ‘16 about a year ago. Dark Ruby/purple color. Aromas of clean red:black fruits and spice. Palate displays cherry and blackberry fruit, somewhat tannic, smokey, combined with heating alcohol. Finish is medium. Drink up soon.

Day 1: Blind - wouldn’t have guessed BDX. Has the black pepper nose of a Syrah. In the mouth more of the same, with loads of black cherries. Good, but not particularly typical for the region. Day 2: rounded out and became more typical. Total cherry bomb.

Why I love France, part duex: superb blend that has the mature red fruit on the palette, earthy on the nose and smooth experience with a clean finish on exit. Excellent glass!

Fantastic cooler graves vintage. Tertiary aromas really coming through with wet leaves and leather taking the helm. Backed up by the primary black fruit all sitting neatly on a clean peppery, vanilla oak.
