    A very good Merlot, representing a huge increase in quality over the 2008, and a return to the charms of the 2007. It's ripe and tasty in fruit, currants and sweet oak, and earns extra points for the fine structure. Ready now.

  • 200882 pts

    A disagreeable wine, unripe and vegetal, with just a trace of blackberries. Sweet toasty oak adds a little richness.

  • 200788 pts

    The wine, which contains percentages of the Cabs Sauvignon and Franc, is rich in berry and cherry flavors. It's very dry, with pronounced but smooth tannins. Feels a bit young and jammy now, so give it 3–4 years in the cellar.
