At first, I only bought one bottle, as I was a little worried that this wine had aged badly. On the contrary, it's a marvel of roundness and length. It's gone beyond a terroir wine. It's a great wine, and I'll treasure the 6 bottles I bought back.

It's the perfect accompaniment to a wide range of festive and everyday dishes. Elegant and pleasant at the same time.

Magnificent estate and a 14-year-old wine with good ageing potential. I recommend it with my eyes closed.

We really liked this full-bodied wine, with beautiful aromas of ripe red and black fruit. The notes of evolution are excellent.

Perfect for drinking this summer with grilled meat: the notes of leather and undergrowth on the nose carry through to the palate, and are delicious.

A perfectly ripe wine, with restrained power and lots of silkiness. The fruit is always present, a delight!
