    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Deep crimson / purple colour. Hedonistic aromas of tobacco, hay and vanilla over-lying the rich black cherry and bramble. Fine extract yet big structure, profound depth of fruit and explosive tannins. The 75% Cabernet Franc lifts density of texture giving elegance, balance and extended length on the finish. Great potential. Rated by Decanter Magazine as the only 5 star St Emilion of 2002 and in the Wine Spectator top 20 Bordeaux 2002s.

    Stephen Tanzer,

    Red-ruby. Captivating aromas of red berries, flowers, truffle and nutty oak. Deep, sappy redcurrant, plum and leather flavors offer lovely sweetness and a firm edge of acidity. Finishes long, with complex flavors of redcurrant, plum, smoke, gravel and leather. Today I prefer this to the 2003 for its sweetness and freshness of fruit.
