Appealing brambly fruit aromatics on the nose. On the palate it is measured and juicy, with brambled blueberry and raspberry fruits. Rustic in an unfussy way, with good structure and a real sense of uplift. Hard to find St-Julien like this anymore, and although it is not polished it has so much going for it. Cabernet Franc also in the blend here.
