Outstanding. An elegant and admirably pure nose of dark berry fruit with a top note of cherry essence. There is a lovely sweetness to the precise and vibrant medium weight flavors that possess a hint of maceration but less than say the Faconnières, all wrapped in a delicious, balanced and sleekly muscular finish. This is very Sentiers in basic character because while there is good refinement, the proximity to Bonnes Mares is reasonably clear. Drink: 2017+

Darkish crimson. Cool, intensely pure dark-red fruit – more raspberry than strawberry but also has a touch of pepper adding a more savoury note and even a very slight hint of vanilla sweetness. Seems light and feathery but this is deceptive: there's depth and concentration here too. Very long. 2017 to 2027
