Teyssier offers a soft, easygoing, consumer-friendly style of St.-Emilion that is mostly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc in it. The wine exhibits berry fruit, herbs, spice, moderate concentration and light tannins. Drink it over the next 5-7 years.
This has always been a go-to, well priced Saint Emilion from Jonathan Maltus. It has a blackcurrant, creme de cassis and just a hint of chocolate that shows good intensity. The palate is full-bodied with plenty of dark cherry and blackcurrant fruit with a nice seam of acidity on the finish. This is a very fine Teyssier. Tasted April 2013.
