"Tasted at Roberson’s Las-Cases vertical. A dark garnet core. The nose is youthful and very well defined with blackcurrant, a touch of truffle and pencil shavings, lending this a Pauillac-like personality. Gaining intensity in the glass, the ripeness really coming through with touches of honey and dried apricot. The palate is full-bodied with a dry, swarthy entry, good acidity, very closed and broody but there is great depth and vigour." Neal Martin, Wine Journal, Jul 2011 |
