Dark fruit and spices. So long. One of the best modern wines from here? 68% merlot and 32% cabernet franc. |

Decanter (92)This is one of the more finessed and well expressed examples of powerful cassis and blackberry fruits in 2017. I love the sense of energy and juice that sits beneath the fruit - again, not something that you are seeing everywhere. A good job from Olivier, even if it hasn't quite reached the heights of 2015 and 2016. Very satisfying, and should develop nicely over next few years. |
