Jean-Marc Quarin June - 2014
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark color, intense and slightly evolved. Nose of ripe fruits combined with a very pleasant “blond” oakiness. Tender palate, extremely fruity, where sophistication comes more from the perfume than from the body. Complex and noble finish, particularly pleasant. Blend: 60% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot, 4% cabernet franc.

Wine Enthusiast July - 2011

A firm, but generous wine with well balanced fruit and tannins. It has a solid core, surrounded by ripe, sweet fruit, freshened by acidity.

Medium bodied, showing some aging in the color, the wine is sweet, soft, fresh and open, displaying none of the hard tannins found at many Left Bank estates in this vintage. The elegant, cherry and spice filled finish shows nice freshness in its character. You can enjoy this now, or age it for at least another decade.

 Elegant, medium-bodied Margaux with lovely violet and cedar notes. Still young but just opening up now. Restrained and still tight on the palate with silky tannins. Best after a few more years in bottle.

Wine Spectator March - 2009

Displays plum jam and currant bush on the nose. Full-bodied, with sweet, ripe fruit, soft, round tannins and a long finish. Slightly loose knit at the moment, but will come together with bottle age. Builds on your palate. Needs time.

High-toned and silky. Well done! Not a long-term wine but lots of silky fun.
