IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS
This is an old-style, classic St Julien built to last, with masses of structure and potential. The 65% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend accounts for its firm, curranty aroma as well as the crisp, fresh acidity on the palate. There is a real sense of density to the core of the wine, a lovely persistence on the finish and considerable class overall.
Once again, this château punches well above its weight. This is no longer the hidden gem of St Julien as the five previous vintages have propelled this wine to the forefront of the appellation. For me it is up there with Léoville-Barton and Gruaud-Larose and very often outperforms them. Black jammy fruits abound on the nose, with some sweetness and intensity. Lovely, intense black berries coat the palate with lots of focus and intensity. A very generous yet very well balanced wine and a very long finish
