St-Emilion

Medium

Cork

Punchy and forward, this has fleshy, ripe and grippy tannins, high but controlled acidity and an underlying herbal and liquorice flavour putting the savoury elements a little ahead of the fruit profile at this point. Feels heady and quite opulent but maintains direction and focus with a clean, salty attack on the finish. Still quite knitted down, good potential, more serious than some. HVE3 certified since 2017. 2.70ha vineyard on the clay-limestone plateau. Yield 18hl/ha. Ageing 16 months, 80% new French oak, 20% one wine barrels. Same owners as Ch Sansonnet and Moulin du Cadet. Rolland & Associés consultants.
