Note and review by M. PIERRE K. Published on 16/07/2018
On the nose, Merlot predominates, with hints of vanilla, prunes and toast. The ever-present cask accompanies the wine well. The attack is supple, the tannins elegant and mellow. Relatively complex on the palate, with a long, lingering finish. The whole is very elegant and expressive! Excellent value for money. Best decanted or opened the day before.

Perfect with meals. Excellent value for money. Mild taste without aggressiveness, very simple, warm bouquet. Lacks a little longevity in the mouth.
