"Tasted blind at the 2007 Bordeaux horizontal in Southwold. Do not ignore this little gem! The nose is quite forward with lime flower, a touch of fresh pear and citrus lemon. Good definition with granite aromas emerge. The palate is very well balanced, nice sense of tension and clarity, more prudent with the oak allowing the terroir to show through on the stony finish. Tasted January 2011."

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.
In the Graves, the only Bordeaux appellation renowned for both reds and dry whites. Gravelly soils yield smoky, mineral reds and age-worthy Sauvignon-Semillon blends.
Yields crisp, aromatic whites with citrus, herb and grassy notes. It shines in the Loire, Bordeaux blends and around the world for its refreshing zip.
