Review and opinion by Mr. MATHIEU W. Published on 11/10/2024

Medium-deep ruby color. Nose: dark fruit, hints of vanilla, and the austerity of Bordeaux, particularly Cabernet Sauvignon, with hints of green pepper from Cabernet Franc. On the palate, some unripe blackberries and other green (vegetal) impressions. You have to like this. All a bit rough and somewhat thin. I had expected a little more substance and drinking pleasure. Also a bit short on the finish. However, the typical characteristics of a Bordeaux are present. With the stew, the wine became a little softer and rounder. Score: 15.5/20
