Tasting notes
Lovely bright blackcurrant nose. Classic and restrained and with a nice core of creamy fruit. Nothing dusty or dry at the end. A very solid effort and underlines the strength of St Julien in this vintage.

A wine with mineral and blueberry character with hints of sandalwood. Medium body, with firm tannins and a medium finish. Balanced for the vintage but needs a little more depth. jamessuckling.com
Good depth of blackcurrant fruit, quite open style, but will gain complexity. Drink 2015-2024. Decanter.com
Supple, with a nice creamy feel to the plum, fig and blackberry flavors. A light stony edge lends some additional length and definition on the finish. James Molesworth, WineSpectator.com
