75% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc, 1% Cabernet Sauvignon
St Emillion Grand Cru, 14.5% alcohol
Situated on the right bank of Bordeaux, the region of Saint-Émilion can boast of producing the most diverse range of styles, partly due to differences in soil types, from gravel to limestone to sand. "From our point of view, 2009 red Bordeaux has an enormous amount to offer and remains one of the most exciting vintages of the 21st century.
Plenty of fruit as well as excellent elegance and precision are offered up by this dark plum/ruby/purple-colored wine, which possesses loamy soil notes interwoven with licorice, black currants and cherries. Drink it over the next decade.
