Plenty of delicious fruit in this wine with strawberry and raspberry. Full body, with creamy tannins and a fresh and clean finish. Gorgeous. Fine. 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc.

A polished, silky style, with cashmere tannins that let the supple plum and boysenberry fruit glide along. Suave black tea chimes in on the finish. Appears easygoing at first, but there’s ample stuffing here. Solid. —J.M.

[] Ripe fruited nose; generous, fleshy, moderately rich and ripe fruited wine all within a well conceived and not too dry tannin, long and generous and juicily satisfying, another well conceived wine in the year with both complexity, flesh and nice warm length. 2020-30 [M.Schuster, Bordeaux Mar/Apr 2013]

Dark crimson. Hint of wood shavings on the nose. Well-melded fruit and great balance on the palate. Nothing forced, with real zest and great balance. Something a little meat flavoured about this – a welcome change from all the obvious sweetness. Drink 2020-2035.
