Tasting notes
Blueberries, raspberries, licorice, and flowers on the nose. Full body, with ultra-fine tannins and a racy and long finish. This is a wine, with form and finesse. Best ever from here. Try after 2018. James Suckling, jamessuckling.com

Fine expression of cassis fruit, pure and elegant Margaux, classy and classic. Drink 2014-20.
Sweet berry, with fresh flowers and bright fruit. Full-bodied, with good fruit, but a slightly short finish
Tasted at Vintex. This has an attractive, floral nose with blackberry, plum and a touch of cassis, just a hint of leafiness but nothing to get flustered over. The palate is fresh and lithe on the entry, very well balanced with fine tannins, very pure with a feminine, delineated finish that leaves the palate fresh and ready for another sip. Very fine. Tasted March 2010
