“Very appealing regal hue. Clear and bright in the glass. Not overly heavy or weighty but there is a lovely focus here with dark fruits, touch of damson, crisp acidity and a mineral finish.”

“Stands out for its fruit purity, with red cherry, potpourri and pepper-dusted plum beefed up by dried herbs and toasted alder base notes. Silky in texture, with a savory beam of acidity driving balance and length.”

“A bold and powerful Moulin-à-Vent with spicy, ripe black cherry, wild bramble and smoky aromas. Deep, plush, defined dark fruit on the palate with firm tannins that grip, yet balanced with a refreshing, juicy quality. Finishes with a stony, savoury, earthy intensity.”

'“A well-defined bouquet with a mixture of red and black fruit, the clayey soils perhaps lending this more depth. The palate is medium-bodied, smooth in texture with fine tannins. Nicely poised with tangerine infusing dark plummy fruit towards the finish, hints of Shezchuan pepper tingling on the aftertaste.”
