Dark in color, you'll instantly find floral notes to accompany the basket of red fruits and thyme. The wine is juicy, soft and fruity with spicy licorice accents in the finish.

Dark ruby in color, the wine is floral in character with a sweetness to the plums and black raspberries and an elegant, silkiness to the tannins. Drink this young, or age it a few years.

Lusciously textured, sensuous, round and packed with ripe, sweet black cherries, licorice, smoke, espresso and chocolate, this hedonistic treat is just great on the nose and even better on the palate with all that fruit.

2009 Vray Croix de Gay is filled with ripe plums, dark chocolate and spices, with soft, elegant textures. The only drawback is the slight dryness in the finish. Since this property now has Stephane Derenoncourt as a consultant, it’s an estate to watch.

2009 Vrai Canon Bouche is made from a blend of 98% Merlot and 2% Malbec. Yields in 2009 were just 20 hls/ha. The wine will be aged in 70% new oak. With soft textures, ripe berries and a kiss of oak, the wine will be popular because it will drink well the moment it’s released. 86-88 Pts

From an assemblage of 90% Merlot with close to 10% Cabernet Franc, along with a dollop of Malbec, this rich, opulent, sweet, round wine delivers a boat load of licorice, plums, black cherries, espresso and spicy scents. This is already offering a lot of pleasure. For consumers thinking all Bordeaux is expensive, at $25, this is a good Bordeaux wine that will do well in blind tastings against much more expensive wines.
