| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
|
| This REPEAT is the 19th release of this Bordeaux in Vintages and perhaps the best yet! Deep intense purple colour. Intense, complex, slightly earthy, ripe, warm, plum-cherry-cassis nose with some gently cedary, sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, nicely structured, well balanced, intense, bright, ripe, Damson plum and black currant flavours with a lingering, gently cedary, harmonious finish. Outstanding value, this charming Bordeaux is nearing its peak of drinkability. Made exclusively from Merlot, it has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with the same lot number 17/11/21 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Aged in French oak barriques for 12 months of which 1/3 was new oak, 1/3 1-year-old and 1/3 2-years-old. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: An impressive value, this chalky, salty Fronsac offers the impression of great freshness and an abundance of red and black fruit at their peak of ripeness. Notes of blackberry, flint and lightly toasty oak are well integrated and complementary. Quite polished but lively. Both satisfying and refreshing with very good length. Best now to 2026. Tasted March 2022. Score - 90 (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com) |
