Note di degustazione
Owned by AXA Millésimes at the time, exuding soft black cherry and raspberry fruits, smooth tannins, saline-streaked on the finish, totally delicous. Fresh acidities, again that mandarin peel edge that I am getting on so many of the 2005s, where the fresh acidities of the year come across as fresh orange rind rather than mint leaf, reflecting the ripeness of the fruit tempered by freshness and balance. Tobacco and gentle tannins, easy to recommend, at a great moment for drinking. 70% new oak.

Tasted blind. Relatively pale, dull garnet. Light nose with a hint of coconut oak. Cough-pastille note on the nose. Pretty savage texture and flavours that seem a bit artificial. (JR)
Deep ruby/garnet, with notes of roasted espresso, white chocolate, black cherries and currants, this wine is medium to full-bodied, reasonably opulent, not terribly complex, but youthful and primary. Give it another 3-4 years and drink it over the following 10-15.
A bit sweet and simple – black cherries and fur. Awkward acidity stands out on the palate and there’s a slight greenness on the finish. (JR)
