Good medium red. Redcurrant and smoky oak on the nose, with darker fruits and flowers emerging with air. A sweet, lightly saline midweight, with intense berry, mint and mineral flavors showing lovely inner-mouth lift. Finishes classically dry and still a bit youthfully clenched, with a sound acid/tannin backbone to support aging. Rating: 92 Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Mar 2014)

Black fruits enrich the nose and the palate has depth of flavour. The fruit feels ripe the sweetness enriching the mid palate and giving a fleshiness at the back. There is an underlying freshness that balances and gives complexity. 2015-24 Rating: 93 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)
Sourced from a single parcel in the lieu dit of En Orveaux, this is a smart wine that’s given the appropriate amount of new oak (70%). It’s very vivid, almost energetic, with plush, yet focused flavours of Asian spices, fresh raspberries, redcurrants and pomegranate-like acidity. 2016-25 Rating: 96 Tim Atkin MW, www.timatkin.com (Jan 2013)

Colour is very dark. Nose of black fruit, palate mineral, lifted, airy, floating. One would never tire of this - it seems to be bottled energy and light. A sort of blackberry jelly fruit on the finish which is still dry...(read more)

A nose that seems further-evolved, old dark red roses, heady and deeply floral. So floral it is quite extreme, but I love it - a touch of very dark chocolate on the finish. Quite full enough and the aromas linger. From v...(read more)
