Drunk on a birthday lunch at the utterly fabulous Chez Dupont in the Chartrons area of Bordeaux. For a second wine this was tres agreeable and drank perfectly with shoulder of milk fed lamb. Our best wine so far in Bordeaux.

a lot of dark red fruit, a hint of oak (surely not "overoaked"), juicy attack, medium body, nice acidity and smooth tannins. the wine has more the personalty of "burgundy" (in a positive way). Almost "easy drinking" on a elegant and high level, one can start to enjoy it already ...

Bright nose of cherry, a touch of leafiness, cinnamon stick and hints of fennel. Palate is soft, approachable and rounded. Simple. Medium-bodied with nice acidity to carry the aromatics from entry to the finish which is firm and somewhat short. Made for early and daily drinking.

92-93. Has lovely gravel infused blackberry and blueberry aromas. An elegant yet fruity full throttle blackberry yet silky very well oaked wine. Many conundrums. 13%. Drink now with pleasure or lay down 3-5 years. 13%. Nees 2-3 hrs aeration. Needs oak to settle down.

Nice medium bodied wine. Needs to breath a bit before being enjoyed. A nice find for the price.
