Note di degustazione
Magnum. 25% Cabernet Franc, 75% Merlot. A higher percentage of Merlot because of rain at the end of harvest. Cabernet Franc was not ripe enough. Pale rim. A little dull at the rim. Aromatic. A bit stodgy and occluded. Some sweetness and the tannins are a little raw. I can’t see this ever coming into perfect balance. (JR)

Quite dark crimson with lots of evolution at the rim. Very light nose, already well evolved. Sweet and lightly floral. Quite pretty and gentle but you wouldn’t want to have paid that much for it. Slightly brutal tannins on the finish. A bit heavy on the finish with some obvious oak tannins still there. Low impact, but a bit fresher than 1998, for instance. (JR)
This saturated, deep ruby/purple-colored wine is a big, rich, smoky St.-Emilion exhibiting this estate's tell-tale characteristics of Provencal olives, black cherry liqueur, prunes, and toasty new oak. It is soft, supple, and ideal for consuming over the next 10-12 years.
