  This is true Tannat, black colored, powerful and firm. It also has fruit weight, potentially delicious black plums, damsons and dark berries that give aging potential. For now, it has tannins, a dark, brooding character and concentration. Age at least until 2018.

  This is a great wine, rounded and rich despite its power and weight. Its many elements—the ripe black fruits, the balanced acidity—are smoothed with wood aging. It also shows an elegance, giving the wine good aging potential. Drink from 2018.

  A new-wood-dominated wine, this has a heavy toast character, with extracted licorice and dark chocolate flavors as well as a big black-plum note. Rich and weighty, with juicy acidity, this demands many years of aging.

• 200893 pts

  The estate wine of Aydie is the most serious and long-lasting of the range produced by the Laplace family. It has an intense, concentrated structure, very dark and rich, with a mineral edge. Age for 4–5 years.

• 200791 pts

  Powerfully rich, with plenty of the dry tannins of Tannat, but also rich sweet plum fruits and concentrated wood to soften and round. There is acidity, but it fits comfortably into the firm fruits and solid final chunkiness.

  Very young, very closed up, but it's possible to tell that this will be an immense wine, even from the 2004 vintage. The acids, the dense structure, the hints of wood and the power of this wine are already in place. Soon, the fruit will come bursting in.
