In a few words ...
Haut Médoc is located upstream from the Gironde estuary. The gravelly composition of the soil encourages the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon. The wines are concentrated and tannic, requiring at least 6 months of ageing. When young, the nose offers aromas of red and black fruits, evolving towards spices and more or less vanilla with age. Haut Médoc is a great wine for laying down.
The 1977 vintage was a small one because of the rain, nothing matured and the result was mediocre, a winemaker's year.
Tasting notes
Taste
Young reds are full-bodied, marked by a touch of oak and hints of sweet spices. After a few years' cellaring, the tannins mellow.
