    This is a bold rich wine—perhaps too rich. It has dense black fruits that go with the dark chocolate and licorice flavors. It still has young tannins and acidity and these need to soften. Drink this rich wine from late 2017.

    The new wood and spice flavors still show in this wine. A dry, woody character is still keeping the fruit back. Black coffee flavors show that there was heavy extraction. This 20-acre property is one of four in the greater Saint-Émilion area owned by the Lannoye family.

    Using fruit sourced from a 20-acre vineyard in Castillon, this is dominated by Merlot, with a touch of perfumed Cabernet Franc. It has an age-worthy structure, showing good balance, firm tannins and ripe fruit.

  • 200987 pts

    Soft, warm and smoky wine, this has a finely layered wood flavor to go with the black currant and red berry fruits. It's dry, yet warm and ripe, finishing with freshness.
