- Soft and appealing on the nose, with flavours of dark berry fruits and plum pudding.

Soft and rounded in the mouth, it also has a surprisingly good length.

- Deep ruby red in colour, this is a harmonious unwooded blend of both grape varieties. Full and quite intense on the nose, with aromas of juicy red berry fruit and warm spices. There is more of the same on the palate, with rich red fruit flavours rounded off by soft, ripe tannins.

- Opaque, with fabulous, fresh aromas of blackberry, green peppers and vanilla overlaying the soft, smoky fruit. The palate has a powerful core of cassis, bramble and plum fruits backed up by firm, yet accessible tannins and well integrated French oak. The finish is exceptionally long and luxurious.

- Montagne St Emilion
- Deep blackberry red in colour with a delicious, upfront nose with ripe fruit, liquorice, bay leaf and some toasty oak. The palate is well rounded and deceptively complex, rich and full-bodied. The flavours from the nose combine well and there are lots of Christmas cake and plum pudding flavours. The tannins are rounded and the acidity levels maintain the excellent balance. A long, lingering finish completes the wine.
