Critique Review
Owned by the Meffre family, this estate has produced a ripe wine packed with black-currant Cabernet Sauvignon flavors and still-firm tannins. It offers weight and richness but never too much. Drink this wine from 2024.
ROGER VOSSVibrant and fruity red with currant and raspberry character. Full body, round and velvety tannins and a vivid inish. Lots of energy here.
James SucklingTight, sappy, bright fruit, a touch over extracted but with attractive cinnamon spice coming through.
