2022 vintage ( sorry for the blurry photo). Grand Cru Classé since the 2012 classification. Contrary to common belief ( as this estate started out as a garage wine), this is not a blockbuster. Beautifully balanced, concentrated, intense, but also very fresh and mineral,with a wonderful purity of fruit. A fantastic wine that will need a few years to shine completely. This estate has a unique soil composition and very old vines: 2 hectares with 100 years old Merlot and 80 years old Cabernet Franc vines. Also tasted the 2014 ( score 9.5) and the 2023 and 2024 from the barrel. Good to know that the 2024 is outstanding here!

Mild nose of black fruits but bracing tannins that interfere with the flavor. Some earth and tar on the nose. Unbalanced and overall not a pleasant experience.
