Typical dusty Bordeaux aromas with red fruits and traces of vanillan oak. Medium weight with fine savoury tannins. A base level right bank Bordeaux but perfectly acceptable from a good vintage. 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc. Soft tannins. Will not improve with further cellaring- drink now. Had another bottle nearly 3 years later in July 2023. Just a quaffer.

Full bodied, good fruits, easy drinking with a chunk of good red meat.
