1er Grand Cru Classé St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend

Great example of young Bordeaux, showing a little Brett, but all the better for it.

Tradional in style, good fruit and terroir buttressed by a sturdy frame of ripe and fleshy tannin.

Complex, gentle, fresh.

Brick medium+, med- aromas. Palate incredible spice notes of cumin and curry. Lime rind and red currant 55%#merlot 35% #cabfranc 10% #cabsauvignon 50% new oak and the rest one wine barrels. #grandcru #saintemilion
