    This generously structured wine is rich in tannins and fine, ripe black fruit. Its structure and juicy acidity will allow it to age well. Drink from 2020.

  • 201486 pts

    Black-currant aromas lead to a wine that has plenty of fruit even though it is masked by tannins at this stage. It's just in bottle after a year in oak barrels. So it is dry for now and will broaden out and bring in the black fruits as it develops. Drink from 2019.

  • 201287 pts

    This Vignobles Dourthe wine is ripe and richly textured. Full and blackberry flavored, it is 84% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. An attractive interplay between the fruit and the tannins gives a balanced wine. Drink from 2017.

    Bright and juicy, this is a fresh, red-fruited wine, ripe and fragrant. The tannic element is almost an afterthought.
