Medium intensity, inky colour and some delicious sappy fruits. Stretched out, sinewy, lean muscles, charcoal, slate, peony, gunsmoke, hugely engaging texture with salinity, and a mouthwatering finish. Easy to recommend, love it. Harvest 25 September to 10 October, 3.7ph, first year ageing in barrels, second in larger oak casks.
94/100 Jane Anson

(Margaux; 59% Cabernet Sauvignon; 41% Merlot; a final yield of 22hl/ha; pH 3.7; IPT 70; 11% vin de presse; 13.2% alcohol; tasted with Thomas Duroux at the property). Ethereal and magisterial in its poise and elegance, this is also very classical. Fruits of the forest. Mulberry. A touch of the signature black cherry and black cherry skin, even a hint of black forest gateau. A touch of iris, some violet with aeration. Walnut oil. Kalamata olive tapenade. Cassis. This is much more crystalline than Alter Ego in this vintage and gloriously sapid when the tannins start to grip in the mid-palate. This is so clear, limpid and lithe and the tannins are tactile and beady but always ultra-fine grained. In short, a great success in the context of any vintage.

Deep garnet-purple colored. Bursts with bold notes of fresh black currants, red and black plums, and mulberries, opening out to reveal an undercurrent of black pepper, iron ore, chalk dust, and fragrant earth. The light to medium-bodied palate is filled with vibrant black and red berry layers and spicy sparks, framed by firm, chalky tannins and great tension, finishing long and earthy.
