Castle Hunting Spleen

The 2013 Chasse-Spleen has a reserved nose of raspberry, cranberry leaf and cedar, a hint of cola in the background with earthy tones becoming more evident with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy red berry fruit, tertiary in style with a rather lean, herbaceous finish that has decent length if not the requisite substance for a wine of this pedigree. Drink over the next 6 to 8 years.

Des arômes extrêmement raffinés, petits fruits rouges mûrs, épices douces, lilas et cacao, bouche franche, avec des tanins soyeux, du fruit, de la fraîcheur. Bel équilibre.

This is a relatively fluid, diluted style of wine with high acidity and not sufficient concentration, depth or ripeness to merit interest.

Bright, deep red-ruby. Blackcurrant, raspberry, licorice and violet on the nose. Juicy, pure and nicely delineated, with fine-grained, extremely primary dark berry, violet and licorice flavors that mount slowly and build well through the persistent finish. The smooth tannins arrive late. Though not especially concentrated or deep, this wine strikes me as having better balance than many 2013s, with enough aromatic lift and fruit to stand up to its tannins. Will offer plenty of early appeal.

Punchy, bright and firm with well-seasoned woodsmoke oak over quite bold, pumped-up fruit. Nice and brave and just about stays in balance. Dark cherry and spice. Needs 4+ years to settle down.

Fresh colour and lifted fruit, shows a little 2013 greenness, but potential complexity is there

Un peu de réduction de jeunesse sur le nez de tous les échantillons, corps pas encore pleinement formé, le vin ne se déguste pas à son mieux, il est largement encore trop tôt pour lui. Mais alors pourquoi le présenter?

Gentle and perfumy, with bergamot, cherry and pomegranate notes mixed with sandalwood and tea. Light, but charming and balanced. —J.M.

Rich and full bodied, this wine offers notes of blackberry fruit and juicy acidity. The tannic backbone is hard at this stage, emphasizing the wood, but it will integrate well with time.
