A vintage considered to be the most difficult of the decade, 1984 remains a good surprise, with a good scale, but suffers from the almost total absence of Merlots, which suffered from heavy rains in May.
The tiled color of the dress shows signs of evolution but remains of a good intensity.
The nose is discreet, but shows a beautiful finesse and a certain freshness, which is the signature of the importance of Cabernet Franc in the grape varieties of this vintage.
On the palate, the wine has a medium structure and a certain dryness due to a fairly present astringency at the end of the mouth.
This wine, a little dry due to the absence of Merlots decimated by the May rains, remains surprising and well-crafted for a vintage as delicate as 1984, but has evolved quite quickly.
