In a few words ...

Blend of 55% Cabernet-sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 13% Cabernet-franc, 2% Petit verdot and 1% Carmenère. A vintage that promises to be great.

Le Guide Hachette des Vins Critique professionnel

"One original feature is the blend: 1% carmenère (a grape variety that has almost disappeared in Gironde), with an equal proportion of petit verdot. At ease in this gravelly terroir, Cabernet Sauvignon is the classic winner (58%), with Cabernet Franc (11%) and Merlot (29%) also contributing. Here, the harvest lasted until October 17. After a long stay in barrel, the wine has a dense color. After an initial, somewhat savage nose, the wine releases powerful, elegant aromas in which ripe black fruit combines with the toasty notes of ageing. On the palate, the attack is gentle, before unfolding with fullness, supported by tight tannins. The finish shows a certain youthful vivacity. A square, nervous and vigorous Pauillac".

Tasting notes

Appearance

Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.

Aroma

The bouquet consists of black and red fruits, roasting, licorice and leather.

Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Spicy

Taste

The Pauillacs are vigorous and tannic, which softens with age which allows the tannins to melt and give a nice and round structure.
