FEMIVIN 2004 :
A wine range extended over several successful years. The 2000 is a little marvel. Very complex nose, it exalts red and black fruit flavours as well as soft spices. The whole is wrapped with beautiful tannins melted over a powerful length in mouth. The last vintages are young so more fruity, velvety with red fruits and violet, a beautiful honest length and a quite round structure.
GERBELLE 2003 :
Vieilles Vignes 2000 : Note 8/10. Definitely higher than the others cuvées of the domain, the Vieilles Vignes abounds in personality with a woody very marked but adapted perfectly to the richness of the matter and to the high maturity of the grape. Undoubtedly the most ambitious breeding of the appellation for this wine extremely successful. Wait two, three years.
Jeanne 2001 : Note 8/10. The nose on the small reds fruits presented rather ripe. The very pleasant final is supple. The Cuvée Vieille Vigne of the brothers Calot had also a pretty texture.
BETTANE & DESSEAUVE 2004 :
The wines of year 2002 are always also pleasant, fleshy, friendly, in particular the Cuvée Jeanne. It will be necessary to drink quickly these 2002.
