Tasting Notes and Scores
63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot. Third vintage of drought. A moderate July was followed by a series of heat events in August, then record-high temperatures in early September. After the heat came light rains then cooler temperatures in the last half of September and into October. Harvest 12 September to 14 October. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Bottled unfined and unfiltered 9–13 May 2024. Really rather sumptuous on the nose. A hint of something floral or boudoir-esque on the nose that’s most attractive, but arguably it’s let down a little on the very sweet, hot end. Such a shame! Maybe needed to be picked a little earlier? (JR)
