  At Cherwell Boathouse, Oxford: Very drinkable, oaky, tending toward the richer end of the merlot spectrum. An excellent restaurant wine -- the full St. Emilion experience at a reasonable cost.

  As I’ve steadily tasted this since 2015, this one seemed to emphasize more acidity and balance, unlike the previous vintages. It felt more like super tuscan or something, not bordeaux, but I liked it, not as much as 2015 but as its own style.

  Nase: kräftiges Bouquet, würzig, schwarze Beeren, Kirschen, etwas rauchig
  Gaumen: schönes Zusammenspiel zwischen Säure und Gerbstoffe, die schon ziemlich angenehm sind, harmonisch, gibt was her und ist doch leichtfüssig, langer Abgang, der noch ziemlich präsent bleibt
  Fazit: ein toller Wein, ein toller Bordeaux, ein Alleskönner, der zu diesem Preis eigentlich ein Preis-/Leistungssieger par excellence ist. Ich kann ihn wärmstens empfehlen. Ich habe fast noch etwas vergessen: unbedingt mindestens 1 Stunde vorher öffnen!

  Color is deep red with a purplish tint characteristic of good St Emilion.
  
  Nose: highly tannic, medium leather, not very fruit forward.
  
  Palate: good medium acidity, a slight astringency in the tannins; red cherries not dark; a hint of tomato.
  
  Finish: medium length, a bit of black pepper.
  
  This is good but we preferred the Jean Faux special cuvée “Les Sources” and the Pomerol. Tasted at Voilà wine bar in Bordeaux (9€ / glass).

  Sweet, elegant, fresh and focused on its ripe, cherry, plum and licorice tones, the wine is forward and fruity with just a hint of chocolate on the back end. This will be delicious on release.
