This classic Pauillac comes from a tiny estate of only 3 hectares, producing a mere thousand cases annually. Located in the Médoc peninsula, it benefits from a highly favorable climate, with mild temperatures, ample sunlight, and gentle breezes. The 75% Cabernet Sauvignon/25% Merlot blend is big and expressive, with deep fruit and silky tannins. Lush currant and black cherry fruit mingle with spice box, cedar, pekoe tea, and woodsy herbs. As with any Pauillac, it continues to evolve and show off with air.
The Wine Enthusiast rates this 93 points and a Cellar Selection, saying:
A ripe, smoothly textured wine, hiding its tannins behind full-bodied, juicy fruit, this is maturing well. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine's black currant aroma leads beautifully to the textured wine. Drink from 2028.
