Deep Ruby, youthful aromas of black fruit and sweet spice. On the palate black currants, black cherry & blackberry fruit flavors with herb, vanilla, cinnamon and wafts of black pepper notes. Vivid acidity, fine grain grippy tannins, long finish ending with a black fruit and spice character. A few years in the bottle will reward. Outstanding.

Pretty modern Bordeaux but wouldn’t necessarily be confused for Napa.

Had a lovely dinner prepared by Viking Forsetti’s team at this chateau. The wine was exceptional and I had a half case shipped home. It arrived unscathed! Can’t wait to uncork a bottle.

Great young Margaux, some nice floral and herbal notes. Palate is relatively soft for such a young wine, nice blend of dark fruit, sour cherry, oak and a little menthol, aniseed and pepper. Nice lingering finish. Enjoyable now and I’m sure loads of potential in years to come.

17+/20 (92+/100) Вино со свежим спелых ягод черники, чёрной смородины, плодов граната, ментола, кедра и ванили. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, вяжущими, бархатистыми по текстуре танинами. Ягодное во вкусе.
