Weitere Verkostungsnotizen

"A major sleeper of the vintage, this estate, which is sandwiched between the famous premier grand cru classes of St.-Emilion, Magdelaine and Belair (now known as Belair-Monange), is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Unfortunately, production is only 700-800 cases from this 6-acre property. Hubert de Bouard made this cuvee. The wine’s exuberant minerality showcases the fabulous limestone soils. Bouard’s Midas touch is evident in its rich, concentrated, jammy blackberry and black cherry, licorice, and incense-filled aromatic and flavor profiles. Full-bodied and opulent, this big-time sleeper of the vintage should drink well for 20+ years. (Tasted two times.)" 92-95 Punkte Quelle: "The Wine Advocate", issue 188
