Robe: Deep purple red. Lighter at the rim. Nearly opaque in the center.
Nose: sour cherry and back currants dominate the first impression. Well accompanied by a scent of oak.
Palate: back fruits along with cedar notes. Slight tobacco leaves and well balanced tannic structure. Medium+ to full body with a long finish leaving earthy notes together with echo of fore mentioned fruits.
Overall very nice body with right amounts of acidity.
Drank during an evening after 2h of decanting. Is already fun but may improve from 2025+

Loved this, but it’s very young. 92 points with a lot of upside.

Bordeaux 2022 en Primeur and some recent vintages: If you want to drink great Bordeaux on a budget, the red Fieuzal is the place to go. I have the 2009 in the best memory. The 2022 EP and the 2016 shown alongside it were both top notch. TN2016: Very expressive aromatics with herbs de Provence, vanilla, tobacco, dark fruits, subtle palate. Difficult not to like this one, pleases a novice and connoisseur alike. Give it time until 2026 to round out some more.

Oak, berries, vanila on the nose. Medium body, smooth and round. Nice dry plummy finishing. Very nice and good to drink.

Deep dark purple color, luxurious. Smell of leather, mushrooms and rich berries. Graphite, leather and cherry taste with fine tannins.
