DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The ripe 65% of Sémillon is the secret behind this rich wine. While at the young stage it has a herbal character that is going to fill out impressively to give a creamy wine with a touch of vanilla and fine crisp, juicy acidity.
Dark ruby, this Graves is very exuberant on the nose, with plum and blueberry jellies, an intense cigar box, chocolate, sous bois, leather, spices (clove and nutmeg), licorice. With a medium body and soft tannins, it has a medium lasting finish with ripe fruits, cigar box and sous bois.
Intense, deep ruby colour for the Rahoul, with its complex bouquet of fresh, black berry fruits and a smoky dimension. Initially taut on the palate, the wine lengthens to glorious effect. Underpinned on the palate by lovely, silky tannic structure, coated in fresh, dark Merlot fruit, together with tannic finesse and blackcurrant aromas typical of cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot. This long, full-flavoured Chateau Rahoul culminates in a lingering, spicy finish.
