Medium ruby-red in color with slight purple touches at the rim. The aromas are fresh with a clean, plumy red-fruit character, a similar clean, red-fruit nature is seen on the palate. The wine has a smooth textured mid-palate with a light structure, whose fine tannins give a little grip right at the end. Acidity is fresh, alcohol is well in balance and the finish has a fair length.

"Lovely crunchy cassis fruit – real freshness and elegance for a Médoc. Very good second wine." - Decanter Magazine
