Lush, opulent, sweet, ripe fruits coat your palate and stay there. Medium-bodied, yet with an ample depth of flavor, the supple finish lingers with fruit, cocoa, coffee bean, and Indian spices. Drink from 2023-2040.

Flowers, espresso beans, smoke, licorice, black and red fruits come alive on the nose as well as on the soft, round, plush, polished, vibrant, red berry packed palate. The oak almost fully integrated. Give this just a bit of time before pulling a cork. Drink from 2024-2036.

Floral, with smoke, espresso, licorice, coffee bean and dark red fruits on the nose. Deep and plush, with loads of ripe, dark red berries, the finish is still a bit oaky. Give this 4-5 years to better integrate before pulling a cork. 89-91 Pts

Showing much better in bottle than it did in barrel, the wine displays its nose of espresso bean, plum, dark cherry, flower and licorice nose as soon as the wine hits your glass. Soft, smooth, round and juicy, the fruit offers a good sense of purity on the palate and in the finish.

Espresso, licorice, smoke and red fruit define the core of this wine. Medium-bodied, round and soft, the wine will be nice to enjoy early in life and for at least 10-12 years after release. 89-91 Pts

Medium bodied, fresh, forward, red cherry centered wine with a nice note of thyme and flowers. This is already quite charming to drink today and will get even better over the next few years.

The debut vintage for the new owners, the Dassault family is medium bodied, and focused on its red fruits, smoke and vanilla, espresso character. Forward, and soft, the wine feels like its trying just a bit too much in this vintage. With time, if the oak melds deeper into the wine, this could be a much better experience.

Medium bodied, with an earthy espresso and cherry character, the wine is round, soft, but a little pushed and has some dryness, in the licorice, oak and red berry finish. This is the debut vintage from the new owners, the Dassault family. With it's terroir, subsequent vintages will probably be better.

Medium bodied, fruity, with an herbal and cherry nose that carries through. The tannins have a slight rustic quality to them.

Over the years, this has developed nicely. The wine is medium-bodied, fresh, round, soft and focuses on its smoky, thyme, espresso black cherry and plum core of fruits on the nose and palate.

With a nose of jammy berries, black cherry, stone and earthy scents, the wine ends with soft textures and some green notes in the otherwise, ripe berry filled finish.
