Tasting notes
Rather inky nose. A bit tart on the finish. Bitter and extreme. Lots of green on the end. (JR)

Another sleeper of the vintage from Moulin St.-Georges, the elegant 2008 exhibits a deep ruby/purple color, aromas of crushed rocks, graphite, blueberries and raspberries, excellent concentration and a long finish. Consume it over the next decade or more.
80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc. From the Alain Vauthier collection. Dark purple. Picked very late according to the nose. A bit brutal. Lots of acidity. Needs lots and lots of time. Lots of guts but no charm for the moment. (JR)
