Wine Press Ratings
99 Points - Bettane et Desseauve (2019 Vintage)
94 Points - Jeff Leve (2019 Vintage)
"Flowers, cherries, and tobacco show easily on the nose. The wine is medium-bodied, elegant, fresh, clean, and pure, with silky tannins and a vibrancy that give the perfect amount of lift for the sweet, soft, red fruits. Give this a few years in the cellar and it will be just great to enjoy for 2 or more decades. The wine is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot. The wine is aged in a combination of new and used French oak barrels with 30% of the wine aged in clay amphora. Drink from 2025-2050."
Taste
Deep ruby with purple hints, the nose shows blackberry, cassis, cedar and a touch of graphite. The palate is silky, layered with dark fruit, chocolate and subtle spice, framed by fine tannins and bright acidity. Long, polished and classically Margaux in style.
Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot
Ageing: 18 months ageing: 70% in new oak barrels, 30% in TAVA amphorae
