The tiny, picturesque jewel of a property, sandwiched between Cos d'Estournel and Montrose, is owned by the same family that owns Chateau Leoville Poyferre in St.-Julien. A final blend of 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2010 has turned out to be ripe, attractive wine with notes of sweet mocha, red and black currants, pen ink and light as well as sweet tannins. Drink 2013 - 2033
Well-concentrated blackcurrant fruit on the nose, very good natural ripeness, good fleshy, savoury fruit on the palate, natural sweetness and very good length with a slight St Estephe leatheriness, good future.
