Very elegant and powerful Saint Emilion. Has Merlot, Cabernet Franc for the fruit and softness and Cabernet Sauvignon for the power and strong structure. Amazing mix of flavors. Grilled meat, tomato base/red wine sauce work wonderfully. At this point.Needs to be decanted a couple of hours to reach the elegant and powerful taste. This wine is very impressive, I will keep one for another 10 years to see its potential. Get it! A big bravo to the Château!

Very dark garnet, lots of smokey oak, briery, doughy, yeasty notes with a hint of rustic. Warm ripe and fleshy in the mouth with adequate acid and a long lingering finish. Quite nice, but pricy.

Blending 53% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and a high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (for St. Emilion) at 23%, the wine reached 13.5% alcohol and will be aged in 100% new oak. Smoke, earth and sweet red berry aromas create the perfume. Delicate, but not light, the wine is round, sweet and filled with ripe kirsch. 91-93 Pts
