Sleek and pretty, with floral, mint and plum aromas and flavors and lovely, silky tannins.

He smells notes of old Burgundy that the English call “chicken shit”. Very reduced, it must be decanted. The palate is distinguished by a soft and rather aromatic character. The flavors of cedar and smoke, typical of Cabernet Sauvignon, follow one another. The wine finishes long, very good and already melted. He's ready to drink. However, its final plot remains unclear. Blindly, I considered that if it was a good wine, it could not be a great wine. He has the advantage of being very open at the moment.

Decanted for an hour. Still fresh looking, a bit rusty at the rim. In the nose, there are hints of meat broth, but they are in the background, no more fruit left, maybe some dried blackcurrant, pencil shavings, leather, earth. In the mouth, it's a tad rustic in its tannic profile, but the texture is good, leather again, some black pepper. Drinks really well.

This is fully mature. With a light berry and spice nose, this medium bodied wine does not compete with the level of quality being produced at the property today. As a matter of style, this traditionally made wine is slightly austere and lacks the freshness, as well as the ripeness and deoth offered in current vintages from 2000 on.

This wine is starting to decline with fruit that is starting to dry out. Hint of sweet dried fruits and herbs on the palate. Fairly weak middle with short finish.
