This wine has been elaborated with 5 varietes to enhance its character : Cabernet Sauvignon gives the longivity and strength. Cabernet French the fragance and the gentleness. Merlot the wealth and the opulence and Petit Verdiot the tannins and the acidity. Initially the Merlot offers the color and the mellowness. The complexity and structure are the resultt of the ripeness in new French oak casks.
What the critics say...
Robert Parker: 90 points(01/10/2004)
The St.-Julien-like 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot’s dark ruby color is followed by a big, sweet perfume of cedar wood, tobacco leaf, black currant, and vanilla. Elegant, medium-bodied, and well-concentrated, it is ideal for drinking over the next 7-8 years.
Pairing: Aged Cheese, Game Animals, Grilled Red Meats, Legume, Roasts, Stews.
