This took about 5 hours to come good but it is great stuff. Better than the Barrail du Blanc. Fresher and more vibrant fruit and a much better body.

NOSE: rich, earthy berries.

TASTE: a little more one dimensional than expected, but still quite good — perhaps it is just “subtle” and “young.” Clearly “Wine” with a capital W. Earthy berries as the nose — the fruit became much fresher with air (1-2 hours). Should be much nicer in a few years. 92.

Very smooth, good complexity, enough tannic backbone to drink over the next several years.

Good soup. Mouthful of fresh blueberries with a herbal side. Fresh turned earth.

Middle range right bank. Needs an hour to show some red fruits and likely a few more years to shine. Faint cigar box and cinnamon spice.

Full body with so much flavor. Paired well with our mushroom and truffle sauce pasta

The aromatic potential is buried in a deep structure.
