Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jul 13
(15% alcohol): Good ruby-red. Reticent but pure aromas and flavors of plum, violet, lavender pastille, white pepper, smoked meat and oak. Deep, layered and rather backward, with strong calcaire character giving the wine excellent inner-mouth tension. Finishes floral and long, with firm tannins and excellent purity and lift.

Bordeaux

Red Bordeaux, globally renowned, is crafted in France’s Bordeaux region from grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. These full-bodied wines feature dark fruit flavours, earthy and spicy notes, and often benefit from ageing. Top producers include Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Lafite Rothschild. White Bordeaux, made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, offers styles from crisp to rich, with citrus and tropical notes. Sweet Bordeaux wines, like Sauternes, are famed for their rich sweetness and flavours of apricot and honey, with Château d’Yquem as a leading producer.
