~ 97 Pts WINE ENTHUSIAST A warm wine rich in tannins and with succulent berry fruits, this is both powerful and elegant. Its density doesn?t detract from the fruitiness that shines out of the wine and balances with the structured aging potential. Drink the wine from 2025. ~ 96 Pts DECANTER This was delicious En Primeur and is even better now with three years under its belt. It's had time to bed down and is fully set for the long term. Wonderfully rich, intense dark fruits are joined by grip and supple tannins through the palate. It has hints of dark chocolate, and a floral edge from the Cabernet Franc. Be in no rush to open this, because it's clearly going to deliver over the next few decades. As of this vintage, we are seeing the blend that the estate hopes to maintain (60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc).
