    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.

  • 2014

    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.

    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.
