| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
|
| Deep purple red colour. Fairly intense, slightly spicy, ripe, Damson plum nose with some gently cedary, sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, nicely structured, well balanced, bright, ripe, harmonious, plum-cassis-black-cherrry flavours with a lingering, gently cedary finish. Excellent value, this 100% Merlot is nearing its peak of drinkability. 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. It has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. A repeat from July 5, 2025. |

| TASTING NOTE: Based on merlot with merit from Right Bank Fronsac and a grippy to drying example made in the most classic of knowable and expected Bordeaux style. Firm acidity and an almost purple fruit profile with a correctness of verdancy and aridity defining the back end of the wine. So bloody proper and useful. Drink 2025-2028. Tasted July 2025.
