Note di degustazione
The 2017 Deyrem Valentin has come together nicely during élevage. It remains a bit light in body, and yet all the elements are very nicely balanced throughout. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry fruit, mint, sweet tobacco and cedar add nuance throughout. There is a lot to like in this approachable, mid-weight Margaux.

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Deyrem Valentin leaps from the glass with notes of Morello cherries, black raspberries and fresh blackcurrants plus touches of bay leaves, truffles and tapenade. Medium-bodied, the palate is packed with loads of red and black fruit flavors plus plenty of earthy accents and a plush texture, finishing with great freshness.
I have been a fan of this Margaux Cru Bourgeois for a number of years, though to be honest I was expecting a little more from the 2017 Deyrem-Valentin. It has a pleasant, rather conservative bouquet with gravel-tinged red fruit that turns blacker with aeration. The palate is nicely balanced, quite nuanced in style with tertiary red fruit laced with tobacco and cedar on the finish. It does not quite "kick on" as I was hoping, leaving you satisfied but not exactly scribbling it down as the best Deyrem-Valentin that you are ever going to taste.
50% Merlot, 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot, 1% Carmenère. Mid cherry red. Cedary cassis with a light oaky overlay and opening to a delicate floral note. Beautifully scented on the palate, light bodied but balanced. Nicely dry on the finish, scented and persistent. (JH)
