70 Merlot, 15 Cabernet Franc, 15 Cabernet Sauvignon | 50% new oak | 13.7% alc | 18.55 hl/ha Rather firm and dry throughout, the oak seems to be more under control than of late, and the feeling of tannin and skin-derived tension is also somewhat more relaxed. The fruit is a little muted, but there is a decent core of concentrated black cherry fruit, and this will inevitably even out over time. Rating: 16 Matthew Jukes www.matthewjukes.com (Jun 2022)

Focus here firmly on raspberry and red cherry fruits, a little less concentration that in normal years but still big-boned. 50% new oak, New technical director Raphael Maurin, harvest 29 September to October 6, small yield of 18.55hl/h. Drinking range: 2025 - 2034 Rating: 89 Jane Anson, www.janeanson.com (May 2022)
A good amount of blackberry and black olive with a medium body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Balanced and rather delicate. Rating: 91-92 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (May 2022)
