GRAPE
BORDEAUX BLEND
Beautiful medium-deep ruby colour. The nose is fruity and ripe
with notes of pomegranate and flowers. Finely woody, the attack is caressingand sweet. The wine evolves on a present and tasty tannic material, medium-full and long but always with this very pleasant
taste of red fruit. The Dragon is a pleasure wine.
91/91 points, James Suckling
Medium-bodied, round and nicely spiced with powdery tannins. Juicy ripe-cherry notes with some sweet spice. Pretty. Firm tannins in the center-palate. 82.7% merlot, 14.5% cabernet franc and 2.8% malbec.
90 points, Decanter
Clarity on the nose, summer red berries with bramble touches, nicely aromatic. Succulent and juicy, this is lightly framed with quite a direct flavour - the slightly sour, slightly bitter notes coming through with high acidity giving the strawberry and red cherry flavours a high tone alongside eucalyptus and cool mint as well as soft cinnamon and clove. Super long finish with a nice balance overall. An easy-drinking wine but still with nuance and complexity in terms of the flavour details. Needs time to round out and become more expansive. Right now quite linear and driven on the palate.
