Rated vintages

    Ripe berry aromas set the scene for this balanced, juicy wine. Full of black currant and berry flavors, it's already delicious with its fruitiness. The tannins, though, need to calm down somewhat, and the wine will be better from 2019.

  • 201587 pts

    This Merlot-dominated blend is full of dense fruit, with a soft black currant flavor. A bite of tannin at the back gives structure and aging potential. Drink from 2019.

  • 201486 pts

    The wine is structured with concentrated tannins and dense fruit. It has spice, wood-aging flavors and a firm aftertaste. That means the wine needs time, so wait until 2019.

  • 201285 pts

    Flavors of bitter extraction spoil this wine, giving an unnecessarily hard character and masking the fruit. It probably will not soften much. The blend is 79% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc. Produced by Alliance Bourg.
