SF | Dark and muscular, an assertive Trottevieille, oak to the fore, controlling the dark ripe fruit and lending a structure, which , whilst it is perfectly respectful of its many varied components, perhaps does not do justice to this prime site and to the vagaries of the Merlot grape in such distinguished terroir, for all the warmth of the midday sunshine in 2020. 91
AJ | Deep, purple black-red. Sweet, warm, meaty and lifted, with lovely purity and freshness of fruit. Lots of charm here in the fresh, pristine style. Fresh yet sweet-fruited, defined with great grace and purity. Delicious ripe acidity provides as much structuring force as the soft, tender tannins; the core of fruit is lyrical and delicate. An excellent reading of the vintage.Drink Dates: 2027 - 2034.
