Riper than usual. Good fruit expression and firm but fine tannins. Definite improvement here.

Softer fruit structure than the 2009 or 2010, this has woodsmoke and truffle-laced strawberries. Enjoyable, not quite the same grip as many in the line-up, perhaps because this is the only one that is 100% Merlot (I only looked at the technical specs after tasting). First year with Thomas Duclos as consultant. 55% new oak.
