Berliquet other_regions which means around age 10-12The 2016 Berliquet has quite a high toned bouquet that gradually gains more composure with aeration, the cedar and mint infused red fruit developing subtle tertiary aromas with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with firm but fine boned tannins. This leans toward the drier and more classically styled Saint milion, and it pulls it off well. Very promising. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin
