“Aged for three years in a mix of small, large, and old barrels, this wine is impressive. Its smoky licorice aromas and powerful tannins speak to its concentration. A blend primarily of Tannat and the two Cabernets, this wine is brimming with black plum aromas, enhanced by a still-youthful acidity. Best enjoyed starting in 2026.” (Wine Enthusiast 2025).

Wine rated (2026 guide) 92/100
About the wine:
The same mastery is evident in the 2020 Madiran. The wine is lively, flavorful, refined, and elegant; it displays a lovely hint of licorice with violet undertones.

Rated estate (2021 guide) Recommended
About the wine:
Lively yet elegant, it reveals aromas of blackcurrant, spicy cherries, citrus peel, and warm spices on the nose, followed by a medium-bodied palate with fine, firm tannins. Concentrated, structured, and refined, it offers a velvety texture and a long, subtle finish. Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Ready to drink or for aging.
