“Located in Saint-Yzans-de-Médoc, this recently acquired estate produces a 2010 vintage that is clearly superior to the 2009, with more fruit, precision, and natural character. The texture is silky, with a hint of firmness on the finish, but the wine is well-balanced overall and should age well. An estate to watch! ” (The 2013 Guide to Wine Bargains - Gerbelle & Maurange)

Review by Mr. FREDERIC B. Published on March 10, 2018

Tasted in 2018. Deep color, complex and rich on the nose, with plenty of black fruit; full-bodied on the palate but not heavy. It still has aging potential.
