Note di degustazione
Bottled. Mid crimson. A little less expressive than the Estournelles St-Jacques, more reserved. But there’s plenty of oak sweetness entwined with the lightly charry dark fruit. A clear house style. There’s also an attractive lightly dusty note on the nose. On the palate, there’s depth to the tannins but they are already incredibly smooth with a mild grip. The fruit is dark and withheld but all there for a more expressive future. (JH)

Bright dark red. Deep, slightly reduced aromas of black raspberry, animal fur and crushed rock. Large-scaled, dense and almost thick, but with its clarity a bit muddled by reduction. Suppler but less sweet and more medicinal than the Mazy and harder to view today; shows at least as much dimension and depth but not quite the lift of the Mazy. The tannins are fine-grained and rather suave. Am I underrating this?
