Saint Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend

Heavy presence of new oak stands out with vanilla bean and toasted spices. Ripe blueberries and some tertiary qualities.

I am biased of course but beautiful subtle graphite nose. Firm yet pleasant grip on the tannins

Great with the rib-eye at Le Cellier Epcot

Seemingly much riper, more fruit forward and youthful than the 07. Good, not great.

2006 Lassègue Saint Émilion Grand Cru - drinking nicely with elegant earthy leather and black fruit expressions. Let it breathe for 45 mins and drink now.

This was dark-fruited and stately

V06. Big wine decant 30 minutes min. Deep plum and cedar nose . Rich, blackberry and almost tar like fruit. Dry, tight, leather, & slightly herbal finish

Very smooth, low tannins. Fruit forward, easy drinking

Half off bottle night at La Merise in Cherry Creek area of Denver.

Smooth. Subtle. Long finish
