| Region | France: Bordeaux | |||
| Notes | "Subtle, with a silky frame around gentle plum sauce and raspberry coulis flavors, inlaid with black tea and violet accents. Perfumy echo on the finish, with has sneaky persistence. Drink now through 2020. 6,000 cases made." (Wine Spectator) | |||
Additional Notes "Strong wood aging and toasty flavors dominate this wine. They give a hard extracted edge which takes away from the black-currant fruitiness. While this will soften, the fruit in this vintage should have been allowed more expression. Drink the wine from 2020." (Wine Enthusiast |
