"Mint and tannins feature in the initial flavor, then it opens out to show delicious blackberry juice fruit. The tannins are dry but integrate with acidity to give more serious aspect to this balanced wine. — R.V."

"This rich wine conveys flavors of milk chocolate and ripe black plums. It is smooth, velvet-textured and full in the mouth. Acidity and firm tannins are a fine supporting cast to the black fruit flavors at the end. Drink from 2016. — R.V."

"Old vines and wood aging have given this wine rich concentration. It is smoky, spicy and still firm with tannins. The structure is filling out with the blackberry fruits and acidity. The wine will be ready to drink from 2017. — R.V."

"Catherine and Michel Lydoire purchased this 30-acre vineyard in 1998, the vines planted on the clay-limestone slope that reaches from St-Emilion to Castillon. Their 2014 is a great bistro wine, its taut structure carrying strawberry-red fruit and rose scents. Bright and pretty, gracious and firm, this is a wine to drink in the fall with steak frites."
