2022 vintage. The back label sends you to the website of Producta Vignobles, a huge coopérative négociant company, the owners seem to be Marie Guyonnaud et Cyril Frémy. 60% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc. Lead pencil and cassis. Medium-bodied, with a pronounced minerality, somewhat hiding the fruit. Good value Saint-Estèphe ( 13 euros in a supermarket ), if a little lean at this stage. Abv. 13,5%. Suffers from the comparison with the 2023 Lilian Ladouys tasted alongside. Better the next day. — 16 days ago

Rivers-Marie 2013 Pinot Noir from Occidental Ridge Vineyard! Needed 15-20 minutes to express itself! Bright Cherries and other black fruits. Velvety with layers of warm fruit that coat the entire mouth , a Big Wow at this point. Very Impressive! A friend named Maria P told me about the Guru Wine Maker! I now buy everything he makes... Bravo Thomas! Charliethewineguy! — 10 years ago
