The vines for this wine are on average 25 years old and grow on the particularly gravelly and sandy soils of the Médoc. A classic left bank blend (Cabernet Sauvignon [45%], Merlot [40%], Cabernet Franc [10%] and Petit Verdot [5%]), the parcels are vinified separately in stainless steel tanks to preserve all the fresh fruit characters of the grapes, and ageing takes place in oak barrels with no more than a fifth of them being new oak. The use of old oak barrels allows for the benefits of oak ageing on the wine to impart tannic structure without lacing the final wines with the potentially overpowering flavours of new oak (vanilla spice and butter).
Lashings of dark cassis and green leaves on the nose, with a savoury note of forest floor (sous-bois) on the palate, which is indicative of this wines’ age. Rather pleasingly, this wine has a lingering fruity core with a touch of woody spice – it is drinking really well right now!
Try with a peppered steak, chargrilled lamb chops or venison.
