Lot #2081. Reignac 2001

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 90 RP.
'The flagship example of high-class generic Bordeaux that is impeccably well-made by a driven proprietor, this blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon was fashioned from meager yields of 26 hectoliters per hectare. It enjoys such state-of-the-art winemaking techniques as malolactic in barrel, microbullage, and no fining or filtration. A dense ruby/purple color is followed by sweet aromas of black currants, espresso roast, chocolate, and new oak. Textured and medium-bodied, with excellent purity as well as a long, concentrated, expansive mid-palate and finish, this [is an] elegant, pure 2001 . . ." Wine Advocate #153, Jun 2004
Provenance: The Entente Cellar
Notes: Very lightly wrinkled capsule, very lightly scuffed and lightly wrinkled label.
