"The bouquet is beginning to show a lovely layer of secondary aromatics in its mélange of black cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, a bit of tobacco and deep, pure soil tones. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, vibrant and rock solid at the core, with lovely complexity, plenty of ripe, substantial tannins, and excellent length and grip on the finish."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
