Drinking quite nicely for young Bordeaux from a not so heralded vintage. Poyferre did well with this 2012.

A classical expression. Still very wound up, extremely elegant tannins, great length. A purist vintage.

A lovely performer in the problematic 2012 vintage, this Saint Julien blend of 65% CS, 32% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot, has a deep purple color, a tempting compressed nose full of black fruits, dark cherries, black pepper, licorice, coffee and stone notes, full rich round body, with acidity that will carry this wine for a couple of decades and a long lasting finish. My score 90, drink to 2033

Classic St. Julien flavors and aroma but will definitely improve with time.
